Basic protection against surges for computers and electronic devices.

• Disaster protection
• SurgeArrest components such as MOVs and over-temperature fuses ensure immediate response to lightning strikes and wiring errors. If the protection components are damaged due to power peaks or overvoltage, excess power will no longer reach the connected devices. Unlike APC SurgeArrest products, most surge protectors continue to flow even after circuit damage occurs, leaving devices exposed to additional surges.
• Protection display
• SurgeArrest warns you when its circuitry has been damaged by a severe strike or power line surge and can no longer provide 100% protection. If there is still warranty protection, APC will replace your damaged SurgeArrest free of charge in such a case.
• Indication of cabling problems
• This LED signals potentially dangerous cabling problems in the flush-mounted cables.
• Fail-safe mode
• For most surge protection products, current continues to flow even after circuit damage occurs and the devices are subsequently exposed to additional surges. SurgeArrest from APC is fail-safe because if the circuit is damaged due to excessive voltage, the device is automatically disconnected from the power supply so that no increased voltage reaches the device.
• IEEE compliant let-through ratings and compliance with local safety regulations
• APC surge protection systems are subjected to rigorous IEEE testing and certified for forward voltage ratings. This refers to the maximum voltage that the systems will transmit to your devices after surges or spikes occur. Lower IEEE ratings indicate better protection and higher performance of the systems. The APC Essential SurgeArrest series provides optimal performance with a forward voltage rating of less than 330V for North America and a forward voltage rating of less than 15% for products sold worldwide. All APC products meet the safety requirements of local standards organizations, including UL in North America and CE/Kema/Gost/C-Tick/A-Tick/Telepermit in respective regions.
• Noise filter
• Surge Protector attenuates noise on the EMI/RFI line that can cause data errors and keyboard lockup. This increases the performance of the protected devices.
• Lightning and surge protection
• Protects your systems from overcurrents and voltage spikes.
• Protection for data lines
• Protection of data lines (Ethernet, coaxial and telephone lines) prevents damage to your systems caused by surges. It is very important to protect your systems against data line surges because they can be just as damaging as power line surges.
• Resettable breaker
• Easy recovery from overload; no fuse needs to be replaced.
