Default Does as GFCI give you some surge protection?

The religious belief in earth ground - because plug-in suppressors do
not work by earthing, for w_ they cannot possibly work. But the IEEE
guide explains they primarily work by clamping.

Nothing new - the same drivel. Attempts again to take 2 sources that say
plug–in suppressors are effective and make them say the opposite. w_
still can’t find the mythical $50 ‘whole house suppressor’ - if they
exist provide a link - why should anyone think they exist.

And no links to sources that say plug-in suppressors are NOT effective.
That is because no one in the known universe thinks plug-in suppressors
are NOT effective - except w_. w_ is a purveyor of junk science.

But the IEEE and NIST guides both say plug-in suppressors are effective.
Anyone can read the sources.
