FAQ
What is the surge energy rating of the TLP404 surge suppressor?
The TLP404 has a 450-joule surge energy rating. This measurement indicates how much surge energy the device can absorb and dissipate during a voltage spike event. Higher joule ratings generally provide better protection against larger or repeated surges that could damage connected electronics.
How many devices can I connect to this surge suppressor?
You can connect up to four devices simultaneously using the four NEMA 5-15R outlets. Each outlet accepts standard North American plugs, making it compatible with computers, monitors, printers, chargers, and other electronics that use standard 120V AC power.
What is the power handling capacity of this unit?
The TLP404 handles up to 1.8 kVA (kilovolt-amperes) of power. This capacity determines how much electrical load the surge suppressor can safely manage while providing protection. It's suitable for typical office electronics but should not be overloaded beyond its rated capacity.
What type of plug and outlets does this surge suppressor use?
The unit features a NEMA 5-15P plug for connecting to wall outlets and four NEMA 5-15R receptacles for connecting devices. These are standard North American configurations that work with most electronics in the United States, Canada, and other regions using 120V AC power systems.
How long is the power cord on the TLP404?
The power cord measures 4 feet (1.22 meters) in length. This provides reasonable reach from wall outlets to equipment while maintaining a tidy installation. The cord length allows for placement flexibility in most desk and workstation configurations without requiring extension cords.
What warranty coverage comes with this surge suppressor?
The TLP404 comes with a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer.
