Does this surge protector transmit power after an outage or does it have to be turned back on?

Surge protector provides power as long as power is supplied to it. No switch required.

The APC surge protector is a fail safe device. It is unusable after a surge. IT destroys it self to protect your equipment.

Another answer is correct also. Unless you have a divided duplex (where there are two circuits in one outlet), the entire duplex and connected items are all served by the one surge protector up to its electrical limits.

I have it plugged directly into the wall now, the power has gone out a few times and no data has been lost. I am thinking about getting a surge protector with a battery backup just in case.

It seems to have a ground wire, probably with the properly grouding the protector will continue functioning. I had some issues with the same happening in the modem here "blowing modems away". The only save is ground it. May other way works for the fine line, normalizing it and sending back to the currency. But it for a thunder, it's something really destructible.

That is a power switch. As far as I know it offers no protection from a power surge.

I don't believe it has a built in surge protection. My Belkin has always been plugged into a UPS (uninterruptable power source) with surge protection.

According to the instructions, you do NOT have to turn off the MAIN breaker. You will know when line power is restored because all other circuits will come back on,It is UL approved and the main reason for the device is to not feed back.

Device is sacrificial. In the event of a surge it becomes the path of least resistance and accepts the over voltage. It will try to dump the surge to ground and most likely will permanently trip as a result. After an event you will still have power but the device should be checked. If the lights are not solid green than it did its just and must be replace before the next event.

Hello. Once power is turned off, this unit will have to manually turned on by the "ON" button located on the front panel.

On my unit if the power plug gets pulled when it is on it comes back on. So if the unit is own a power strip and the power strip gets turned off the unit will power back up. I keep my unit on my desk but keep it powered off unless I need to use it.

I have not had a problem with this surge protector. I have all my computer equipment plugged into it.

Hi Brad, this is a very simple type of protector; shuts off the power when ground faults are present. It offers offers 510 Joules of surge protection and will shut off the power at the pedestal when power is too high or low. Requires manual reset after a ground fault. I'm not sure if it will cut off power (you shouldn't be able to reset the protector) if the poles are improperly wired. I think it is a very inexpensive protection for 30 AMP service RVs. Tom

I have the following one, too. It has an on/off switch. Great for tv, computers, etc. Belkin 12 Outlet Home/Office Surge Protector with Phone/Ethernet/Coaxial Protection and Extended Cord 4156 Joules for around 22. on Amazonby BELKIN

This is a safety device that compares current out with current back. If there is a mismatch, because current is going somewhere else, it shuts off. It's designed to shut the power off fast enough to avoid serious injury if the reason for the current mismatch is that someone is getting a shock. It's certainly not designed to protect your devices, but since surge protectors generally work by shunting the surge to the ground line it would probably trip during a power surge.

I'm not sure if I've had a power outage yet, but I've had it installed for at least 4-5 months and Haven't noticed a problem. They may be referring to the time "stopping" when the power goes out. It's a mechanical timer, I believe, so it will be susceptible to this issue.Let me know if you have any other questions. I use two of them to control some night time pendant lights at my office. Perfect for what my needs!

I was confused by their response as well. I have seen some surge protectors with a light "not grounded." If the light was on in that situation, it would show there was no ground. They must have misunderstood your question. If it says "protected" and "Grounded" and the lights are on, it should be working properly. Maybe you should contact Belkin again and maybe you won't get Nick.

Yes - the Netgear adaptor acts like an Ethernet port, so when the power returns, the system will return to normal function.
