What is a power surge and how can I be protected?
A power surge is an increase in voltage dangerously above the standard level in a flow of electricity. The normal flow in Australia is 240 volts, anything higher and there is a serious problem. This higher voltage is sent via electricity and telephone cable, or events such as lightning strikes. When this extra power does enter the home/office mains, it enters into anything that is plugged into the central mains. If an appliance that is plugged in at the time is on, it can cause irreparable damage inside the unit, and may even cause a fire. Even if the the surge doesn’t immediately destroy your appliance, it will most definitely put an extra strain on your appliance, hence cutting down the life time of the product.
This power board and surge protector is designed to suppress and divert the extra current to the outlet’s grounding wire via the MOV. Once it has done this, everything returns back to a normal level, and your appliances are safe.
Remember – only those appliances that are plugged into the power suppressor are safe. It is recommended that you have surge protectors throughout your whole office and home, at every power point.
