The amount of protection you get from those things is actually limited, but it's better than nothing. there's a definite inside and outside to the protection you get, and things can and will reflect around. I needed to get very good protection for a piece of lab equipment once, and I read up on everything at that time (much gone from memory now) but long story short, to get really clean(ed) power that keeps internal and external issue clamped down, you want a line conditioner, and you are spending many thousands of $.
The home equipment is good to have, but far, far from perfect. B -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
