Specs for SM-60 Universal 3 Outlet Power Strip / Surge Protector? Can anyone provide the technical specs?

I am looking for this info too; did you ever find out? Kind of surprising how everyone raves about it but it doesn't give any specifics about the level of protection.

No surge protection. It barely weighs anything. Not sure about the shielding. It's basically just a cheap power strip. If that's all you want then you will be satisfied.

Anything with an active ground pin should be surge protected. The ground pin on the Elago is plastic so it does not protect against surges. Don't be fooled by the TR-Adap-BK. It appears to only offer overcurrent protection since it has a fuse. No plug can offer surge protection unless the ground pin is active (i.e. metal and connected). If you are looking for true surge protection, go with the Simran SM-60 if you are traveling. The cord has a ground pin that can be used to protect any device that has a 3-prong plug. 2-prong plugs can only offer polarity if it is keyed (one pin bigger than the other). I hope this answers your question. I spend most of my time overseas. If you travel a lot, it is good to purchase an Ideal 61-164 voltage analyzer. It allows you to test any outlet before you plug up anything that you value.

There is a UL Listed sticker on the bottom of the surge protector. Here's a link to a photo:http://aehass.zenfolio.com/p218402084/h370c0f13#h370c0f13

Hello Daisy. All Belkin Surge Protectors are UL (Underwriters Laboratories) tested.

The device does not consume power hence joules are an inappropriate method of rating this device. There is no conversion since there is no time component. The specs on this are: 120VAC, 15amp, 1800watts. The technical specification sheet on this is available at: http://360electrical.com/our_products/surge_protector/4-outlet_rotating_surge_protector.pdf

I am using one with a power strip for my TV, DVD player, stereo, audio amp, sub-woofer. Very handy when a DVD stops. I turn off the switch for a moment. then open the DVD drawer to remove the problem disc immediately on power up. the only limit is the 15 amp current rating for the number of things to be plugged in.

Yes According to the box it says 15A 125 VAC 1875W 60HZ Conforms to ANSI/ULSTD NQ 498A This is about the SAMs as any power strip ! Like any Electrical product don't abuse it!

I suggest you contact the manufacturer for your answer. Personally, I would only plug those units into a 15-20 amp dedicated wall socket with GFCI protection. I use this surge unit for my computer, monitor, external hard drives, wireless router etc. with excellent results.

@ "I have them all over my house to protect big ticket items; Computers, Washer's, Dyers, Ref., Stoves, etc."Good grief John, you're protecting "big ticket" items with a low-end surge protector which is only spec'd to absorb a 1000 Joule surge? You better read up on just how little protection this unit actually provides...fine for relatively inexpensive items but not for costly things like computers, big-screen TVs and the like. Also, I'm curious about how you're using this 15A device with dryers, stoves, etc. which don't run on 110V and certainly pull more amperage than 15. @ "I have them all over my house to protect big ticket items; Computers, Washer's, Dyers, Ref., Stoves, etc."Good grief John, you're protecting "big ticket" items with a low-end surge protector which is only spec'd to absorb a 1000 Joule surge?

The only power strip I have seen on Amazon with each outlet switched is this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IM41NXE/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc;=1&smid;=A1IQGAIDZT0W8TIf you shop ebay and will buy from Chinese sellers they are less expensive there. Search for "New 6-Outlet Power Manager 2 USB Charger Port 1.8M Power Strip Surge Protector"They are not remote controlled, so it depends which feature is more important, a remote or each outlet switched.

I don't recommend exceeding the specified maximum amperage rating of the protector. You will damage the surge protector.

Not sure of the best thing to do but there is diminishing amperage with just one power strip. I found this when seeking to power a saw that uses all 15 amps. This surge protector has an output of something like 12.5 amps. I don't know what would happen if you daisy chain different pieces together. If you do that, I'd get a product with just 2 or 4 recepticles on it and save a few dollars. If you are real worried, I might call some electrical supply house in your area and find out what others do if you have a shakey power service. Our power goes off and comes back on quickly sometimes so I even have a surge protector on my aging refrigerator. The power system in this country is aging and I've seen many pieces of expensive commercial equipment blown out at once by careless electric company folks. There is good reason to do something...
