re: Question for OT electricians

Fo the electricians, how does a whole Home surge protector work?
I picked up one at Lowe's since it was in the clearance bin. It was marked down from $75 to $6.
So I figured 'why not' It just needed a dedicated 50 amp. So it has two legs going to it from a 50 amp and then a neutral and a ground going to the bus bar.
Is this just for show, how exactly can it protect the whole house from a surge?
