I have not purchased this item. I think my daughter and son who have the same initials as I, must have purchased this item, and Amazon has sent this question to me, BUT, I did look into the detailed description of this item, and it does have inbuilt surge protection.

Surge protector are designed to stop the flow of current to your electrical device. This product is no different. It would either have to be reset or replaced depending on how heavy of a surge it received.

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.

i don't think it is a surge protector. it does act like a circuit breaker and shuts off when it gets too hot. you'd really need to ask the manufacturer about surge protection.

Yes, it'll protect against most any surge other then a direct lightning hit.

No just a surge protector. Where you plug in tv, sound system, DVD player, video Game console and other electronics . I purchased for my entertainment center

No this cord is not surge protected. Get a surge protect plug strip or outlet for each item you want to protect or add a surge protector at the panel which will cover everything on the panel. Generators do not usually have surge protection.

YES IT DOES! There are four of the special shaped openings on the back to be placed on nails or screws with flat heads. You would need to measure the placement of the nails/screws carefully to line-up correctly with the Surge Protector.

No; this surge protector with timer is digital and totally silent. I absolutely love mine. The timer has many settings and features.

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.

It does not give any kind of rating for protection, it just states: built-in fuse; over-load / short circuit / surge protection

It doesn't. The claim works well for Belkin to sell what they call surge protectors. If you read through the comments you will see that 1) people's equipment is damaged when a surge goes through these surge protectors, and 2) Belkin denies damage claims from customers who had faith in the company.

Your question would indicate that you want a UPS, and uninterrupted power supply; no it doesn't do that but it does prevent damage from power surges. Brown out protection requires a UPS.

The manual states you need to keep all combustibles at least 3 feet from the front and the sides of the unit. This includes drapes and curtains. I have not tried a surge protector but do not see why you could not use one.

I have not experienced a surge while using it so far. I think in case of a surge it will cut power off automatically to protect the appliances connected to it. To reset, press the button on the side of one end of the power strip.
