About American Power Conversion (APC) P12U2
FEATURED REVIEWS
Absorbs a lot of Joules
Hi, this is a great surge protector, the P12U2. But I can't buy it anywhere. I want at least four. It has saved my equipment in Florida from lightning strikes. Please make this surge protector again, it is the best I know of, with it 4280 Joule rating it is double that of all the others, at least. Please make it again.
12 Outlet Protection with USB Ports!
Beefy sturdy unit that feels very high quality. Provides 12 outlets and 2 USB ports which more surge protectors should be doing these days. It would be nice if there was a bit more space between each outlet for larger plugs but if that isn't an issue then no biggie. Highly recommended!
Maximum Power Surge Protection for Computers, Notebooks and Other Electronics
Catastrophic Event Protection
SurgeArrest components such as MOVs and Thermal fuse ensure instantaneous reaction to lightning strikes and wiring faults. If the surge components are damaged due to power spike or over voltage, excess power cannot reach your equipment. Unlike the APC SurgeArrest products, most surge suppressors continue to let power through even after circuits have been damaged, leaving your equipment exposed to other damaging surges.
Fail Safe Mode
Most other surge suppressors continue to let power through even after their circuits have been damaged, leaving your equipment exposed to future surges. APC's SurgeArrest fail safe, which means that once the circuit of an APC SurgeArrest has been compromised the unit disconnects equipment from the power supply ensuring that no damaging surges reach your equipment.
IEEE let-through ratings and regulatory agency compliance
APC surge protectors undergo stringent testing by IEEE, and are awarded "let-through ratings", which indicate the maximum voltage level that can possibly reach your equipment after a surge or voltage spike has passed through an electric surge protector. Lower IEEE let-through ratings indicate better protection and performance.
The APC Essential SurgeArrest series offers optimal performance with a let-through rating of less than 330V to 500V for North American products, and a rating of less than 15% for products sold worldwide. All APC products comply with local agency safety requirements, including UL in North America and CE/Kema/Gost/C-tick/A-Tick/Telepermit in their respective regions.
Lightning and Surge Protection
To prevent damage to your equipment from electric power surges and spikes.
Noise Filtering
Attenuates EMI/RFI line noise that can cause data errors and keyboard lockups, ensuring better performance of protected equipment.
Protection Working Indicator
SurgeArrest will warn you if its circuitry has been damaged by heavy strike or power line surge and it is unable to provide 100% protection. If still under warranty, APC will then replace your damaged SurgeArrest free of charge.
Receptacle Shock Safety Shutters
Shutters protect users from accidental contact with unused outlets.
Resettable circuit breaker
Easy recovery from overloads; no need to replace a fuse. (Not available on Wall Tap SKUs)
Transformer Block Spacing
Connect bulky transformer block plugs without covering up other outlets.
SurgeArrest Performance Features & Benefits
Marketing Features
Data-line Protection
Protection of data lines (Ethernet, Coaxial and Phone lines) ensures complete protection of your equipment from surges. It is very important to protect your equipment from "back door" electric surges traveling through data lines, as they can be as damaging to your equipment as surges traveling over power lines.
Cord Management
Reduces cord clutter.
180 degree Rotating Cord Retainer
A 180-degree rotating cord with strain relief offers flexibility in positioning the SurgeArrest, and in routing the power cord.
Protection
Phone Line Splitter
Allows use of two pieces of equipment at once, such as a modem and phone.
Safety
Plug Activated Safety Shutters
Shutters protect users from accidental contact with unused outlets.
Overload Indicator
Indicator illuminates when connected equipment draws more power than unit's capacity. To remedy the condition, unplug less vital equipment.
Site wiring fault indicator
In order to work properly, surge suppressors require a correctly wired and grounded outlet. APC surge protectors identify dangerous wiring problems before you plug in your equipment.
Adjustable Cable Management
Keeps cords and cables neat and organized.
