What sets the PH8 Home Office SurgeArrest 8-Outlet Surge Protector apart is its professional-grade electrical surge protection, specifically designed for computers and electronics. This robust device offers Catastrophic Event Protection, thanks to SurgeArrest components like MOVs and Thermal fuses. These components react instantaneously to lightning strikes and wiring faults, preventing excess power from reaching your equipment and causing damage.Unlike many surge suppressors on the market, the PH8 SurgeArrest ensures that power is cut off when its circuits are compromised, providing an added layer of protection for your devices. This Fail Safe Mode is a unique feature that sets the PH8 SurgeArrest apart from its competitors.The PH8 SurgeArrest also offers EMI and RFI noise filtering, reducing line noise that can lead to data loss and keyboard errors. This feature ensures optimal performance of your protected equipment.The device has undergone stringent testing by IEEE and has been awarded "let-through ratings". These ratings indicate the maximum voltage level that can reach your equipment after a surge or voltage spike has passed through the surge protector. The lower the IEEE let-through rating, the better the protection and performance. The PH8 SurgeArrest series boasts a let-through rating of less than 330V to 500V for North American products, and less than 15% for products sold worldwide.The PH8 SurgeArrest also offers Lightning and Surge Protection to prevent damage to your equipment from electric power surges and spikes. It also features Noise Filtering to attenuate EMI/RFI line noise that can cause data errors and keyboard lockups, ensuring better performance of protected equipment.The device also features a Protection Working Indicator that will warn you if its circuitry has been damaged by a heavy strike or power line surge and it is unable to provide 100% protection. The PH8 SurgeArrest is designed with a Right Angle Plug that allows for equipment and furniture to be placed closer to the wall than with a standard power cord, reducing cord stress. It also features Data-line Protection for Ethernet, Coaxial and Phone lines, ensuring complete protection of your equipment from surges. Additional features include a 180-degree Rotating Cord Retainer for flexibility in positioning, a Safety Overload Indicator, Receptacle Shock Safety Shutters, a Phone Line Splitter, Adjustable Cable Management, Transformer Block Spacing, and a Building Wiring Fault Indicator. This comprehensive suite of features makes the PH8 Home Office SurgeArrest 8-Outlet Surge Protector a reliable and convenient choice for all your surge protection needs.

Purchased 3 PH8 and I am completely satisfied. The 3 work perfectly.

Very good product and delivey

It works! It really does. It hasn't faltered. No fires yet...

I bought this a few months ago and it hasn't had any issues at all. Plenty of outlet space with easy to see indicator lights and a decently sized cable.

Works great

Bought the APC two months ago to compliment the other APC for all my electronic attachments. It works great keeping the devices safe from power surges and electrical storms.

APC Functional

I got this in August of 2018. I have this unit hooked up in my home office. Using all the plugs, including 2 printer. It just works. No power problems, even when using both printers, this has passed the stress test. I highly recommend.

Just works

The 8-plug system is now being used for my television, my amazon streaming device, and my Roku streming device. It works really very well, no complaints yet.We will keep it hooked to see how wwell it works.

Best gift given.

Simple but solid. Looks great in black. 8 Outlets which is more than enough needed to cover most users devices. Highly recommended!

Simple Solid Home Office 8 Outlet Surge Protector

Sleek design and sturdy. The back of the power strip has two recesses so it can be mounted to a wall either vertically or horizontally. Three of the eight outlets allow you to plug in those bulky A/C adapters...with plenty of room to spare. Each outlet is tight and secure upon plugging something in. I've bought several other brands that were loose upon plugging something in and allowed the plug to move. That's not safe to me. The wall plugin is flat and allows the thick power cord to lay flush with the wall. That, in itself, is huge in my book. The ground and protection LEDs are very bright and are able to be seen at nearly every angle. No more walking over it to see if you're protected.

Great Product!

APC makes the best surge protectors on the market and the model P8T3 is no exception. It comes with a lifetime product warranty AND a $150,000 protected equipment warranty and the surge protection is rated at 2770 Joules, not 1750 Joules as stated in Amazon's product description. The big advantage is that it has four wide spaced outlets which easily accomodates those bulky power adapters. In addition the power cord swilvels 180 degrees to make it convenient for placement. A very convenient feature is that the front panel has two LED indicators. The first one lights up green to let you know that protection is working. The second one lights up red if there is a building wiring fault. The first time that I plugged in the surge protector, the building wiring fault LED lighted up red so I knew that I had plugged it in to an incorectly wired outlet. I plugged it in to a different outlet and the red LED didn't light up so I knew that I had plugged it in to a correctly wired outlet. If you are looking for superior quality at a low cost then this is the perfect choice.

Best on the Market

I waited to write this review to give it some usage time. So far it has worked very well. This is a well built and designed unit. The indicator lights are a nice plus. It has a heavy duty cord and allows for 3 transformers. The plugs fit nice and secure into the unit. Besides the extra plugs; I feel comfortable that it will protect my equipment from a voltage surge as we get those in my area

A quality unit

This surge protector has 5 standard outlets along one side and 3 adapter spaced outlets that fit both normal and sideways formats on the other. Power switch is solid and the on/protected lights are very bright and easy to see. The shape is very flat and square, 3" x 9.5", which makes it fit in well on a cluttered desk and stable when adding or removing plugs. The technical features are excellent. Probably the best part of this product is the warranty, both lifetime warranty on the product and the equipment protection policy. The PH8 doesn't protect phone lines, USB or coax but there are other models that do. Overall a good buy for great protection from a reliable company.

Good product with great design

I use the APC Home Office SurgeArrest to protect my new water heater and water softener. These products have small computers as most home appliances do these days. Our power provider - Rocky Mountain Power - has frequent outages and voltage deviations. I have experienced no issues with the APC Home Office SurgeArrest.

This product works

Excellent product. Easy to use and works as promised. Highly recommend this product. Number of outlets is good.

Excellent Product!

With limited floor space in my office I find the slim feature but with plenty of outlets is really a great asset the thr one I had was too wide and took up too much spaced. I find not only is it easy to lay flat onthe floor and I can mount it on the wall there are so many options. I would recommend this unit to anyone.

My favorite Surge Arrest

I received this power strip on a trial basis. The strip is well made. The five plugs are oriented in a linear fashion. This works great for standard plugs. There are three well placed outward plugs for power adapters. Since I have many power adapters to attach the alignment did not allow use with my computers but worked well for the audiovisual equipment

Great surge protection

Overall, a nice unit, with socket spacing good for plugging in multiple "wall-wart" style transformers. The USB power plugs are handy and do seem to provide full power for phones and tablets as verified with a DROK USB Tester, while not drawing any measurable power themselves when not being used, as verified with a Kill-A-Watt Electricity Usage Monitor.
