Default Anyone using a surge suppressor on their washing machines?

Wow you do have an ego today. You attack to make yourself feel superior. Meanwhile reality is found in appliances. Eevn without using any protectors, all appliances already have superior internal protection. Even early electro-mechanical clocks were once upgraded in design to withstand over 2000 volt surges without damage. No protector parts were used.

All appliances routinely have robust protection rated at 600 volts, 1800 volts, 2000 volts, etc. And all feature this protection without protectors. If a manufacturer wishes to upgrade that superior protection, he may also add protector parts. Meaning your denials are wasted bandwidth.

Surges that are hundreds or thousand joules are routinely made irrelevant by protection already inside appliances. Informed consumers worry about destructive surges that might occur once every seven years. And that put all household appliances at risk. Informed consumers spend tens of times less money on a properly earthed 'whole house' solution to even protect those near zero plug-in protectors.

Reality does not change no matter how often you get your panties in a knot and still do not post any relevant or honest denials.

As usual, I will post the same answers next year since learning and civility appears to cause you difficulty.

Others can learn why so many waste so much money on near zero protection. Some will adamently denial even when manufacturer numbers says something completely different. Plug-in protectors without a 'whole house' solution can even make damage and fire easier.
