A: The surge protector you selected has a single plug (2 metal blades and a ground post) and a plastic ground post to help secure it when plugged in. The metal blades and ground post goes into the top receptacle and the bottom plastic post goes into the ground portion of the bottom receptacle.

Q:When there's a surge & it trips, will it continue after? I want to hook to a fridge & a freezer but after it trips, I want power to continue so I don't lose my food. I'm OK w/ it being a 1-time trip and replacing it but NOT OK if it trips and the power to the plugs stops. Considering getting one with an alarm and need to ask the same question to those guys. THANKS

A: I would think you would have to replace it after it trips,there is no way to reset it.

A: This type of surge protector is sacrificial, it takes the hit instead of your electronic device. Thus when a surge is stopped the device is destroyed and must be replaced. It does not reset.

A: If there is a power event (surge or spike) that the surge protector needs to absorb to protect your equipment, it will not turn back on. The unit served its purpose and will not operate anymore to prevent your equipment from operating when its not being protected. You will need to replace your surge protector at that point.
If power is interrupted, but there are no damaging spikes or surges the protector needs to absorb, it will turn back on when power is restored.
For units with a power switch/breaker, those should only trip if the unit is overloaded (has too many device connected and it exceeds the power available on the circuit). The protection is provided by the MOVs and internal fuse (not the breaker).

A: I don't believe this will turn off by itself. It's just a regular outlet with surge protection in it.

Q:I need something like this for Ipad Minis and Samsung Galaxy phones.. I'm not sure about the amps shared on this.. if it's recommended to charge with at least 2.1amps on those devices, how are we to use both usb ports on this? what happens if you go below the recommended 2 amps to charge things like this? what is this used to charge if not phones and tablets? if you can only use one port to charge these things at a time I don't get why they even have 2 ports.
