Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of APC Home Office SurgeArrest 8 Outlet with Phone (Splitter) Protection, 120VCustomer Review: Survives when others don't Summary: 5 Stars
Just bought another of these to replace another brand. Had a power surge the other day during high winds, and there was a destinctive "pop" before the power went out. Did not lose any plugged-in equipment, but two of the four surge protectors in the hourse (cheaper, with a lower Joule rating) were dead and had to be replaced. (Also lost two fluorescent lights with electronic ballasts, so I know it was a deadly surge.) This unit apparently protected the equipment AND survived. I think it's worth the few extra bucks for the higher rating of a surge protector like this one to avoid the cost of replacement in the event of a surge.
Description of APC Home Office SurgeArrest 8 Outlet with Phone (Splitter) Protection, 120VAPC surge protectors undergo stringent testing by IEEE, and are awarded "let-through ratings", which indicate the maximum voltage level that can possibly reach your equipment after a surge or voltage spike has passed through a surge protector. Lower IEEE let-through ratings indicate better protection and performance. The APC Essential SurgeArrest series offers optimal performance with a let-through rating of less than 330V for North American products, and a rating of less than 15% for products sold worldwide. All APC products comply with local agency safety requirements, including UL in North America and CE/Kema/Gost/C-tick/A-Tick/Telepermit in their respective regions. Lightning and Surge Protection: To prevent damage to your equipment from power surges and spikes. Data-line Protection: Protection of data lines (Ethernet, Coaxial and Phone lines) ensures complete protection of your equipment from surges. It is very important to protect your equipment from ˇ°back doorˇ± surges traveling through data lines, as they can be as damaging to your equipment as surges traveling over power lines.
