“Use of equipment Can this surge protector be used for a refrigerator?”

1-7 of 7 Answers

• Its heavy duty enough so not only can you use a surge protector, its the second best thing you can do to protect it, not from the power going off, but coming back on, which it usually does with a spike in voltage. When this happens one of three things will go, if they do fail when the surge happens, the compressor itself will fry out, the freezer fans have a tendency to go, and if your fridge has any kind of electronic control board, they can short out too. THE best thing to do to protect anything from being damaged in a power outage/surge, is to leave it unplugged until after power returns.

• Of course, but you don't need one like this. This is built for multiple switches and inputs, made for a home theater or computer workstations. You can pick up a $20 strip and it will work fine.
