Reliable; safe protection from lightning; surges; and spikes
For over 30 years; millions of customers have trusted APC for power protection. The APC SurgeArrest Essential P6WU2 provides the primary level of surge protection that should be present on any of your computers and household electronics.
Surge Protection
Power disturbances such as surges; lighting and spikes can happen at any time and cause irreparable damage to your investments. All APC surge products undergo stringent IEEE testing and comply with local agency safety requirements. The P6WU2 provides basic protection for computers and electronics.
Ideal For Computers And Household Electronics
Provides essential surge protection to your computer and other electronics devices and protect your home electronics from surges; spikes; and lightning.
EMI and RFI noise filtering
Reduces line noise that can cause data loss and keyboard errors.
Fail Safe Mode
Most other surge suppressors continue to let power through even after their circuits have been damaged; leaving your equipment exposed to future surges. APC's SurgeArrest fail safe; which means that once the circuit of an APC SurgeArrest has been compromised the unit disconnects equipment from the power supply ensuring that no damaging surges reach your equipment.
IEEE let-through rating and UL 1449 compliance
The 'Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' (IEEE) let-through Voltage rating is based on a test that subjects a Surge Protector to a 6;000 volt spike. The rating equates to the amount of excess voltage that reaches connected equipment. The lower the number; the better the performance of the Surge Protector is. Underwriter's Laboratory's UL1449 surge protection safety standard uses these ratings to help users gauge performance. UL's best Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) let-through Voltage rating is "300V".
Lightning and Surge Protection
To prevent damage to your equipment from electric power surges and spikes.
Smart charging port
A 2.4 amp USB port integrates Smart Charging technology to maximize charging speeds according to the type of device detected.
Safety
- Building Wiring Fault Indicator: This LED informs users of potentially dangerous wiring problems in the wall circuit.
- Fail Safe Mode: Most other surge suppressors continue to let power through even after their circuits have been damaged; leaving your equipment exposed to future surges. APC's SurgeArrest fail safe; which means that once the circuit of an APC SurgeArrest has been compromised the unit disconnects equipment from the power supply ensuring that no damaging surges reach your equipment.
- Protection Working Indicator: SurgeArrest will warn you if its circuitry has been damaged by heavy strike or power line surge and it is unable to provide 100% protection. If still under warranty; APC will then replace your damaged SurgeArrest free of charge.
- Catastrophic Event Protection: SurgeArrest components such as MOVs and Thermal fuse ensure instantaneous reaction to lightning strikes and wiring faults. If the surge components are damaged due to power spike or over voltage; excess power cannot reach your equipment. Unlike the APC SurgeArrest products; most surge suppressors continue to let power through even after circuits have been damaged; leaving your equipment exposed to other damaging surges.
Protection
- Lightning and Surge Protection: To prevent damage to your equipment from electric power surges and spikes.
- IEEE let-through ratings and regulatory agency compliance: APC surge protectors undergo stringent testing by IEEE; and are awarded "let-through ratings"; which indicate the maximum voltage level that can possibly reach your equipment after a surge or voltage spike has passed through an electric surge protector. Lower IEEE let-through ratings indicate better protection and performance. The APC Essential SurgeArrest series offers optimal performance with a let-through rating of less than 330V to 500V for North American products; and a rating of less than 15% for products sold worldwide. All APC products comply with local agency safety requirements; including UL in North America and CE/Kema/Gost/C-tick/A-Tick/Telepermit in their respective regions.
- Noise Filtering: Attenuates EMI/RFI line noise that can cause data errors and keyboard lockups; ensuring better performance of protected equipment.
Marketing Features
- Fail Safe Mode: Most other surge suppressors continue to let power through even after their circuits have been damaged; leaving your equipment exposed to future surges. APC's SurgeArrest fail safe; which means that once the circuit of an APC SurgeArrest has been compromised the unit disconnects equipment from the power supply ensuring that no damaging surges reach your equipment.
- Resettable circuit breaker: Easy recovery from overloads; no need to replace a fuse. (Not available on Wall Tap SKUs)
- Protection Working Indicator: SurgeArrest will warn you if its circuitry has been damaged by heavy strike or power line surge and it is unable to provide 100% protection. If still under warranty; APC will then replace your damaged SurgeArrest free of charge.
- Lightning and Surge Protection: To prevent damage to your equipment from electric power surges and spikes.
- Data-line Protection: Protection of data lines (Ethernet; Coaxial and Phone lines) ensures complete protection of your equipment from surges. It is very important to protect your equipment from "back door" electric surges traveling through data lines; as they can be as damaging to your equipment as surges traveling over power lines.
