Surges are caused by nearby lightning activity and motor load switch-
ing created by air conditioners, elevators, refrigerators, and so on. The
SurgeArrest Rackmount filters out EMI/RFI (electromagnetic and
radio frequency interference) noise with components whose electrical
resistance is very high at radio frequencies. EMI/RFI noise is com-
monly created by the same activity, which produces surges, and can
also be caused by nearby radio transmitters.

Operation
The
Site Wiring Fault Indicator
(red) will illuminate if the building
wiring is faulty, regardless of the position of the On/Off Switch. This
indicator signals either: missing ground wiring, the hot and neutral
wires are reversed, or the neutral circuit is overloaded. If this indicator
is illuminated, a qualified electrician should be called to correct the
service wiring. When SurgeArrest Rackmount is fully loaded, the Site
Wiring Fault indicator may flicker - this is normal and may not be
indicative of a fault. Even if equipment appears to operate normally,
faulty wiring could result in a shock hazard that can prevent the
SurgeArrest Rackmount from providing rated surge and noise sup-
pression.

Note:
The Protection Working LED (green) indicator is normally illumi-
nated when the switch is activated. The light is off when SurgeArrest Rack-
mount has disconnected itself from the utility due to a sustained ultra high
energy surge, such as a direct lightning strike. If you observe that this LED
indicator is off, first check the Circuit breaker and On/Off Switch to make sure
that the suppressor is on and receiving power. If the Protection Working LED
still does not light, return the unit to APC to be repaired or replaced.

The
Circuit Breaker
is tripped when the button pops out. This indi-
cates the suppressor is overloaded, and at least one supported device
needs to be unplugged. The circuit breaker is rated to trip at the same
overload point as most home and office utility service branch protec-
tors (15 Amps).

regulates power to the eight switched outlets, and
can be used as a system master switch to all nine switched outlets.
