SURGE SUPPRESSORS DEFINITION (continued): … utility outlets, a power switch, and a 3-wire cord for plugging into a wall outlet.In most countries where electronic equipment is used, the effective AC utility voltage is 110 to 120 volts; the peak voltage is on the order of plus-or-minus 160 to 170 volts at a frequency of 60 hertz. But transients, which arise from various causes, commonly reach peak levels of several hundred volts. These pulses are of short duration, measured in microseconds (units of 10-6 second), but in that time, they can cause hardware to malfunction. The worst type of transient occurs when lightning strikes in the vicinity … Surge Suppressors definition sponsored by WhatIs.com, powered by WhatIs.com an online computer dictionary
