Hi,
I am just smiling. Over the years(~30 years or so) I have
seen many sags
but surge? Very seldom. I used to monitor power line a lot
with monitor.

I don't think they mean surge in that way. It would appear
that "surge", for these folk, means any voltage outside
operating range, wether it's lightning, crossed wires, power
bounces when a line goes down, switching grids, etc.. Not
too unusual, really.
