Surge Protectors
Using surge protectors and line conditioners can substantially
reduce the risk of electrical shock and aid in protecting your
Notebook from power-source problems.
During a power surge, the voltage level of electricity coming into
your Notebook can increase and cause data loss or system
damage. Protect your Notebook and peripherals by connecting
them to a surge suppressor, which absorbs voltage surges and
prevents them from reaching your Notebook.
