Why will not engage in a "point by point discussion".

..
Why won’t w_ answer simple questions:
- Why do the only 2 examples of protection in the IEEE guide use plug-
in suppressors?
- Why does the NIST guide says plug-in suppressors are "the easiest
solution"?
- How would a service panel suppressor provide any protection in the
IEEE example, pdf page 42?
- Why does the IEEE guide say in that example "the only effective way
of protecting the equipment is to use a multiport [plug–in]
protector"?
- Why does “responsible” manufacturer SquareD says "electronic
equipment may need additional protection by installing plug-in
[suppressors] at the point of use."
- Where is the link to a 75,000A and 1475Joule rated MOV for $0.10.
- Why should anyone believe there is surge protection "inside every
appliance".

Why can’t w_ find anyone, even on the lunatic-filled internet, that
agrees that plug-in suppressors are NOT effective.

For real science read the IEEE and NIST guides. Both say plug-in
suppressors are effective.
