What is a Surge Protector?

Surge protector offer protection in power circuits by sacrificing themselves. The energy that might have damaged your equipment is absorbed or reduced by the protector instead.

What should I look for in a surge protector?

• Energy absorption/dissipation
Represented in Joules, this rating tells you how much energy the surge protector can absorb before it fails. A higher number indicates greater protection. For entry level protectors, looks for minimum ratings of 200 to 400 Joules, and for better protection look for ratings above 1,500 Joules.

• Response Time
There is a very slight delay before a surge protector responds to a power surge. Look for a surge protector that responds in less than twenty nanoseconds. The lower the number, the quicker the board responds. High end protectors can respond in one nanosecond.

• Indicator Light
All surge protectors will fail after repeated surges. Higher end alternatives utilise an indicator light, which will be illuminated when the board is protected.

Signal Gain Explained
Measured in dB, gain assists in receiving weaker signals. A higher gain will improve reception.
