Use Surge Protector Power Strips

5

Description

Surge protectors divert excess voltage away from connected devices, sacrificing themselves to protect your electronics.

Recipe/Instructions

  1. Purchase surge protector power strips (not just basic power strips, which offer no protection). Look for models with a high Joule rating (higher is better, generally over 1000 Joules for decent protection) and indicator lights confirming protection is active.
  2. Plug valuable electronics (computers, TVs, game consoles, audio equipment) into the surge protector strip, and plug the strip into the wall outlet.
  3. Replace surge protectors every few years or after a known major surge event (like a nearby lightning strike), as their protective components wear out over time or after absorbing a large surge.
