Some outlets will completely cut off their power once the surge protection ends while others will keep running. This is the best of both worlds as you can choose to use the outlets which continue running specifically for electronics which shouldn’t be unexpectedly turned off, like computers. And use the rest of the outlets for electronics that won’t be impacted by a sudden power outage, like a radio.

It has its own circuit breaker. If a component fails inside the surge protector, then only the protector’s circuit breaker will switch off. This way the failed component won’t shut off power for the whole house.

It has a high joule rating of 3020. This generally indicates how much electricity it can divert before it stops functioning. The length of the time is also largely dependent on weather and other connected electronics.

All of the power sockets have safety covers to protect the outlets from random particles or to protect children from potential danger.

The manufacturer offers lifetime warranty and promises to reimburse up to $100,000 worth of equipment if it is damaged by a power surge while their surge protector is active.

It can be mounted on a wall and the outgoing cable can be rotated by 180 degrees to prevent it from being damaged when situated in tight spaces. In addition, it comes with a cable management strap to neatly organize all the cables.

The six outer outlets are spread out to allow for big power plugs to be plugged in without covering other sockets.

It has a 3345 joule rating, which is considered to be quite high. The rating potentially indicates the amount of excess power it can withstand over a period of time.

Each outlet has a safety cover to protect curious children or to protect the outlet itself from dust and similar particles.

The device will immediately stop providing power the moment it stops protecting from power surges. This might seem as a bad thing since the power cut will be unexpected, but it is the most reliable way of showing that the gadget has served its time and cannot be relied upon anymore.

Four out of ten sockets are deliberately spread out to leave space for the bigger power plugs. This way the power plugs will not unintentionally cover other outlets.

It can be mounted on a wall with the inclusion of keyhole slots at the bottom of the panel, thus providing more placement options.

It has a lifetime warranty with a $150,000 lifetime insurance for any device that is properly connected to the Tripp Lite. If such electronic has died due to a power surge, the company will compensate its value.
