Surge Protectors As Fast As Possible 

+The silent gamer Talk about prepared

+raven still i still have set up my whole home power generator/mini nuclear power plant

Zombie Apocalypse here i come.

+raven still well more like widespread power outage apocalypse. for the zombie one i have a separate bunker

+The silent gamer dude in my area, no one would be willing to take nuclear waste! how do you manage to get rid of the waste?

Thats why to buy 15£ power strips not £5 power strips

Some do, some don’t, have to make sure you get the right ones

Get a surge protected power strip with integrated circuit breaker.

When I played Minecraft on my Xbox 360, I always built a house out of wood planks since it was the easiest and quickest to get within an in-game day (around 10 minutes irl) and I’m surprised they never burned down when I put a furnace in ‘em

@Eddie Kittredge got filtered lol

+Icaro Vasconcelos i sense some sarcasm here....

+Icaro Vasconcelos You two should get a room.

+waffle muncher iph u no wut y meen ;0

+Icaro Vasconcelos hmm i remember something of this kind the legend says they lost 3 mobo's to build a router.

+Eping | Gaming & More I think you forgot something else, I don't know, I Xeon?!

they couldn't find that in clip art XD

+2facedjoker also the electrons go from the negative to the positive instead of the other way around

+Joe Mills You're not wrong but electrons are usually represented on paper as "e-" or just "e".

+2facedjoker And there flowing from positive to negative which is wrong too.

+2facedjoker they many not be electrons all electricity is a moving charged particle

I believe nowadays it is code required for new construction.

+Ankit Sharma It's also longer than the hot and neutral pin so that any shorts can be grounded as quickly as possible.

+UntouchedWagons Actually it's longer so that the ground connects first when you plug it in.

I knew it's longer.. I just didn't know it was rounded off

+GrayWolfTech That's more or less what I said.

haha

Bweiss1234 Then what is amperage?

@@totallyfrozen the amount of whatever is flowing at a time and causing pressure. If you think of it as water in a water hose, the amps is the amount of water that is coming out every second.

Entirely. It really needs a redo/update at this point. It makes no mention at all of the other type of surge protectors that offer FAR more protection than the MOV ones he's covering in this video: Series mode, inductance-based surge protectors like the ones from SurgeX, BrickWall and Audioquest. Those are much more expensive, of course, but they can take surges up to 6000v/3000A several thousand times over without having to be replaced.

All of these good questions and no answers.

Yes it does. "Hole flow" or conventional current flows from positive to negative.

PhilfreezeCH yeah but we aren't living in Benjamin Franklin's time

Okay, so the answer to this is actually a gray area. In physics, electrons travel from negative to positive. This is the actual way electricity flows. But, electrical engineers write wiring diagrams and understand semiconductors under the assumption that electricity goes from positive to negative. Either way is fine and it really just depends on the environment.

Report them

good thing i installed wifi kit for my pc

Are you dense? Bad weather doesnt account for all surges, in fact they account for less than half. He even says in the video like wtf

Y U DO DIS LINUS

Not actually true. A whole-house surge protector normally has a much higher clamping/let-through voltage point than an individual device surge protector does. Because of this, you always want to take a layered approach to surge protection. Never rely on just a whole-house surge protector by itself. It's a good idea to have one at your service panel, for sure, but you should also have individual device surge protection on each of your high-value electronics as well. Keep in mind here that surges can actually come from inside the house (washers and dryers, furnaces, AC systems, garbage disposals, lighting systems, etc.) as well as from outside. Studies have shown that roughly 80% of all surges experienced at a site originate from on-premise equipment. This is why individual surge protectors are still very important, even when a whole-house surge protection device is in place.

Death OfTime Dude. I thought I was the only one who got weird popping noises from my speakers! I switched outlets and it was fine after that 0.o

Req Squad no. Pulls more power through a single plug on the first. More resistance, however more heat and power loss.

There was a firefighter earlier who said he comes to houses where fires have started because of daisy chaining surge protectors together. He said don’t do it.

I believe the built in fuse is engaging when it switches to the off setting. Not all surge protectors have this built in.

Unless your whole neighborhood was built before 1960 and nobody ever renovated it doubt that

He is switching to the next slide...It can never be unseen now...
