I have used the board room analogy for surge protectors into UPSs as using a stack of coffee filters in the coffee maker basket. If one filter is good, then 10 should be great, right ? But what happens, you impede the proper flow through the filter.
I know, a crude analogy that is not technically accurrate to the details, but prevents the Charlie-Brown's Teacher (wahhhh-wahhhh-wah-wah )effect when I speak.
