Tony needs a GDT to protect a 230VAC mains input circuit from lightning surges. The GDT will be used in series with an MOV (follow current prevention).

Which GDT is the correct choice?

Note — Check the DC sparkover voltage (min/max) from the DigiKey product page or datasheet for each part. Consider that 230VAC has a peak voltage of approximately 325V.
