Re: protection against poert surge-(lightning)
Only thing with a hope of stopping lighting is a whole house lightening arrestor. Even this wont help with a direct hit also wont help less your house is properly grounded. Simply put it the lightening hits the line in to your house or the pole your on you have at best a 50 50 chance of your stuff makeing it with out damage.
Now a best in class battery back up (xxxxva for xxxxva) with built in surge arrestor and whole house ligtening arrestor and good groun can turn that 50 50 in to more like 75% chance of your stuff surviving. My measly 300 va battery back up cost me damn near 300 bucks new. We have a whole house litenging arrestor replaced once and i had to replace my my ups as well. Nothing was damaged that was hooked up to the back up (acctually a few of them) but my cable tv box got smoked really nicely it was not on the back up.
