The lightning no need to strike your lightning arrestor or power line to cause trip. When lightning strikes nearby, voltage can be induced by electric and magnetic field, thus produce voltage and current surge. Electrical wiring in house also can get excited by nearby lightning. These wires are already passed the RCCB or ELCB you have at the power inlet.This is in relation to RCCB tripping when there is lightning far away .

The best protection is to have surge arrestor as close as possible to your appliances. So, other than RCCB/ELCB, your PC or any other sensitive devices should be plugged into sockets that has surge protector.
Note that most electronic devices are very sensitive to surge. Normal surge protection by using normal varistor like devices might not be fast enough for protection, unlike electrical appliances. It is also good to have a fast surge protector at DB, perhaps in micro seconds range.
Leakage current is always there in your house wiring. This is because your house wiring is lined close to each other between L and N. When you have an appliance running on another circuit, the AC will induced voltage on the wire next to it and generate a stray voltage (like air core transformer
