Will this unit "blow" or break when as surge occurs? Then has to be replaced?

My electrician told me that this unit will only withstand one big surge, then it will have to be replaced.

My understanding is that it is a one time use. If it blows, it will have to be replaced, but hopefully it has protected everything when it blows.

The green status light will turn red if a surge has occurred. The device then needs to be replaced.

Mine is on as well. I expect Steakman is correct and this just means surge protection is active.

There is nothing you can do. It's a warning that lets you know it's been fried from a power surge. Mine did the same thing after 8 years. So I bought another one. How old is you surge protector? Monster does have an excellent warranty.

I have has this unit for about 3 years...protecting my computers, etc. I has shut down during a surge. No equipment has been damaged as a result of having this APC unit in place.

That has not happened with this unit. Something similar occurred with a different unit and it failed not long after. The whistling that time was coming from a circuit board. My advice is to watch and wait. It may be temporary.

I'm confident that the cord will handle that momentary surge, however, I would be more concerned about your power supply/generator being able to handle that surge.

i would definetly use a surge protecter, some generators have them but i dont think this one has one

Never having it happen to me, I can only speculate that you would simply have to 'reset' the surge control product so that it would work again! Educated guess, they usually trip like a GFI and then you simply push a button and reset them! Hope this helps!

Blown fuse! Of course after its unplugged... Be very careful to watch how it pops out. Apparently there's a little clip you will need to pry up when putting in the new fuse. I wound up calling an electrician friend & he said I just didn't have it in that clip correctly. One more note he said do not have it in a surge protected outlet because the tub cord already has one and the two will continue to blow that same fuse! I bought my replacement fuse here on amazon & my husband picked up a couple of spares @ the local Ace. Good luck!

Im not an electrician. But with basic figuring...it says it is a three amp, so 1 amp shouldn't be anything. Ypu can look on the fan and see what the surge power is and that should tell you. If it doesn't say, call who sold it to you and they should be able to tell you what the surge is. Hope this helps you in your ventures:)

Your surge protector is excellent insurance. Tempers all electrical spikes. Good luck

I haven't experienced that with my unit. Sounds like you need to contact customer service.

We have had power outages and nothing bad happened to electronics plugged in to it. But don't know if we have actually had a surge. We mostly use it as a charging station.

Please (call manufacturer to be sure) mine melted/popped also depends on what system watts you may have but play it safe call the experts Robert....good luck!

Difficult to say. Call Denon and describe the symptoms. They'll likely refer you to a certified repair location, who will charge you a flat rate to trouble shoot it and then advise as to whether it's less costly to repair or replace it. You should always run these components and anything connected to them through surge suppressors.

There us a surge reset button on the side. Please also read the description of the item.

Nope. If the unit is broken in "any way" I was told you need to replace the entire thing. They'll charge you a $40 hold for a replacement unit. When they receive your broken unit then they refund it. It. Takes. Forever!!!! I swear their customer service is run by one guy. Not kidding. If I had to repurchase...I wouldn't
