will this product protect 240 V appliances?

Installing the Whole House Surge Protection device into the electrical panel provides protection for both the 120VAC and 240VAC as it attaches to the panel the same as a 240VAC circuit breaker meaning that it protects both legs of the AC circuit. Consequently, it provides the fist level of protection for all of your electrical devices such as the heater, air conditioner, electric stove, etc. The only draw back is that if it is tripped, by say a lightning strike, it will have to be replaced. Regardless, it's still a good investment if it saves all of your appliances which do not have a dedicated surge suppressor. It is still recommended that you have a surge suppressor on items such as computers and televisions, etc.

I believe the voltage rating is 120 volts. To do 240 v you would need an adaptor.

I've been thinking about my response, and the gentleman that posted contact informatio for Tripp-Lite is the best response. Think I need to do more research myself. I've used these protectors on electronics for fear of utility voltage spikes and close lightning strikes. My kitchen appliances, AC, PC are all protected by them. They are massively constructed. Fortunarely I have a wood furnace with no electronics, but I do keep the refrigerator, microwave, coffe pot and electronic range operating on a genset. Contact Tripp-Lite and also research as much as you can.

The unit provides protection against electrical spikes and surges. Your problem is with the electrical utility provider could be a transformer issue

Everett - The description is 110 - 240 and fold out 110 AC plug. That fold out plug will then plug into the adapter you see in the picutre and it fits the round pin European 240 VAC socket. Yes, I think it will work on 240 VAC.Ron

No way! This item has a "standard" 120 VAC plug on the back that would not (thankfully) fit into a 240 VAC outlet. p.s. I no longer recommend this item as two now spaced a few months apart have not held up even for a year. They are too expensive for such a short life.

It is not a voltage adapter, so if your equipment is not rated for 240v, it will likely be fried

I'm not sure about that, but I guess that kind of protection has to be in the house energy brakers. I would think it will give you some protection but I would not relay only on this.

I am almost certain that it will not work with 240V, but I will see a person in the electrical distribution business tomorrow evening, Tues., Dec 2nd, and I will ask him and get back with you.

John,The P4400 does not work with 240 volt appliances. It is designed for 115 volt and the maximum voltage is 125.See P4400 data sheet at http://ec1.images-amazon.com/media/i3d/01/A/man-migrate/MANUAL000010953.pdf

The receptacle needed for the 240V is a NEMA 6-20, and needs to be on a 20A breaker.

I have it on my 200 amp service at my house. I'm afraid I don't have the technical knowledge to answer your question. I do know that this has saved my new appliances from frying in the last electrical storm.

I understand it DOES cover 240V. Luckily I haven't had the opportunity to see it if works, but it is hooked up to my A/C - which is 220V.

Phillip - this device does not come with adapters for 240V outlet schemes. While, I do not have the original packaging, I would not rely on the 120V design (insulation) to safely accomodate 240V supply.

Absolutely. This surge protector has one of the highest joule ratings (3345) on the market.

Not likely. This surge protector needs a German "Schuko" Type F outlet (has 2 round pins). The UK outlets are mostly Type G which is 3 big rectangular pins.

Yes it will... the AC power chord is removable so you can replace it with one that suits... I assume you are from Australia with 240v (I am too).
