Which surge protector.

I know about type 1 and type 2 surge protectors,and which one to use. But what criteria dictates the rated amperage of the device. Are there any parameters to consider, other than the load I am trying to protect. Information on these devices is hard to come by. Any help appreciated. Thanks
