“Can I use this to plug in a treadmill? We recently bought this and everytime we use the treadmill for a little bit, it trips the breaker in the home. Could it be due to the surge protector? Treadmill person already replaced all parts already.”

This surge protector supports a maximum of 15 amps. Your treadmill could be placing too large an electrical load - Recommend checking your treadmill model to determine the total amperes.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you for your inquiry. It really depends on how much power the treadmill pulls and if anything else is connected to the surge protector. The unit would support 12 amps connected to it and anything over that would throw the overload alarm on the unit. The surge protector itself likely isn't tripping the breaker. If you continue to have issues with the unit please do not hesitate to reach out to an APCbySchneider support team. We offer email and chat services through our support site.
