You have never provided a link to any site that has the specs you say are required. If you could look at the nice pictures in the IEEE guide you could see power wires have MOVs H-N, H-G, N-G - covering all modes. In addition, common mode surges (H & N lift away from G) coming in on the power line are converted to transverse mode surges (H lifts away from N & G) by the N-G bond in US services. Hardware protectors that are effective are those that have that dedicated earthing wire. Your religious views on earthing are not shared by the IEEE or NIST. Plainly described in the IEEE guide - protection is by clamping, not earthing. They are good at getting others to strongly endorse myths - as demonstrated in this thread. Where are the numbers? Not provided because so many know only using subjective reasoning. I have provided links from the IEEE and NIST that say plug-in surge suppressors are effective. You have provided your myths and subjective reasoning. -- bud-- |

Check this guy out (click view profile in Google groups)!
He keeps on posting the same answers in different group discussions that have to do with lightning strikes. Amateur lightning enthusiast? Industry advocate? Surge protector vendor? Who knows... bud-- wrote: On Nov 24, 6:19 pm, "w_tom" wrote: That plug-in protector does not claim to handle anything. Humor for the day. Have doubts?
