Technical Overview
The B300WRC1 meets UL1449 standards for surge protective devices, with a let-through rating that ensures connected equipment receives only safe voltage levels during surge events. Its 500-joule surge energy rating provides sufficient capacity to absorb common electrical disturbances, while built-in EMI/RFI filtration reduces electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference that can degrade signal quality in sensitive electronics.
The unit features a NEMA 5-15P plug that connects to standard 125V AC outlets, delivering power through three NEMA 5-15R receptacles. An integrated LED illuminates when the surge protection circuitry is active and functioning correctly, offering visual assurance of ongoing defense. The direct-plug design eliminates the need for a power cord, creating a streamlined installation that sits flush against the wall outlet.
