Not sure if this is the right place to ask and I know a few
electricians
frequent this site so....

We did the right thing some time ago and bought surge protectors for
all
the pc and entertainment equipment, or so we thought .........

A power surge last week and one fried tv later, and we now discover
that
the cheap ones are hardly worth having! Did not realise there were
different standards of surge protection.

So can anyone recommend a good surge protector please? What
specifications should I be looking for?

Get a Belkin one.


I think he wanted a good one.

Exactly. Belkin don't do cheap stuff, and have a good reputation. You must
be thinking of some other brand.

Nope, Belkin are definitely crap.
