Description
A surge protector is a device designed to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes and power surges. It acts as a barrier between the power source and the connected devices, preventing excessive voltage from reaching them. Surge protectors are equipped with built-in circuitry that detects voltage fluctuations and diverts the excess energy to a grounding point. This helps to safeguard sensitive electronics, such as computers, TVs, and gaming consoles, from potential damage caused by sudden power surges. Surge protectors typically come in the form of power strips or standalone units with multiple outlets, allowing users to connect multiple devices simultaneously while providing surge protection. They are an essential component of any electronics setup, providing peace of mind and helping to extend the lifespan of valuable electronic equipment.
