For those with minimal reading and thinking ability, the point of the
illustration, as stated in the text, is "to protect TV2, a second
multiport protector located at TV2 is required". And the protector did
not do anything to the adjacent TV. It protected TV1 and lowered the
surge voltage at TV2 from 10,000V to 8,000V.



A protector is only as effective as its earth ground.

Statement of religious belief in earthing. The IEEE says plug-in
suppressors work primarily by clamping, not earthing.


Clamping to what?
