What Type Of Surge Protected House Circuit Breaker ?

Use a whole house protector instead. It goes in the panel like a dual circuit breaker, and protects both both hot legs. You also want a *good* grounding electrode system. And bond your ductwork.

As to differences between devices, you'll need to read the specs for each device you consider.

I have never seen a panel surge arrestor in a 15 amp breaker.

lot of folks inter change the two words frequently

This page has the "breaker" type of protector that I installed. All panel manufactures make them now days.

Panel installed with out wires are better cause the distance from the TVSS to the buss is shorter. No bigger wire has little effect on transients.

I also have plug strips TVSS that are at the point of use.

You will have to asses your risk and get what you need. Do not forget to protect the cable, Sat and Telco wiring. Odds are nothing you install will help on a direct/near strike.

I drive an auxiliary ground rod 10 feet way from the primary ground rod. I try to get the lowest ohm path that I can.

Thanks, for the lead.

I will stick to the dedicated products instead of combos like this.
