Specifications:

• Surge Protection Rating: Check the joule rating in the product specifications, which indicates the amount of energy the surge protector can absorb before it is potentially compromised.
• Response Time: Surge protectors generally have a fast response time to protect connected devices almost instantaneously from power surges.

- Placement: Place the surge protector in an accessible location where you can easily connect and disconnect devices. Ensure it is in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating.
- Check Indicators: Regularly check the LED indicators to confirm that surge protection is active. Replace the surge protector if the indicators show it is no longer providing protection or if it becomes damaged.
