Protect all your electrical equipment with this 8 socket lightning arrestor PM8-FR from APC against lightning, surges and voltage peaks.


Warning light for protection activation
SurgeArrest will alert you if its circuitry has been damaged by large voltage fluctuations or temporary surges and is therefore unable to provide 100% protection. If the damaged SurgeArrest equipment is still under warranty, APC will replace it free of charge.


Compliance with IEEE Transient Residual Voltage Values and regulatory bodies
Stringent testing by independent agencies ensures that APC surge protectors will protect your equipment and data from power surges and spikes.


Resettable circuit breaker
Easy recovery from a power surge; no need to replace a fuse.


Right-angle plug
The angle of the plug allows equipment and furniture to be placed closer to the wall than a standard power cord. Also reduces the strain on the cord.


Sound filtering to eliminate electromagnetic and radio interference
Reduces line noise that can cause data loss and keyboard errors.


Catastrophic Incident Protection
SurgeArrest components, such as fast-acting fuses and thermal fuses, provide instantaneous response to lightning strikes or wiring failures. When surge protector components are damaged due to a voltage spike or surge, excessive power cannot reach your equipment. Unlike APC's SurgeArrest products, most surge protectors continue to allow current to flow even after the circuits are damaged, exposing your equipment to further dangerous surges.

Overload indicator
The indicator light comes on when connected equipment draws more power than the unit can handle. To remedy this problem, unplug the least important equipment.

    Excellent power strip

    I've been using it for a while now, but it seems to be excellent when I first started using it, and it feels good when I plug in my various equipment. I'll have to wait and see, but I'm very satisfied. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product.

    very functional

    well designed, the sockets on 2 different sides are well functional and the gap between 2 - 3 and 3 - 4 is superior so very practical

    Well-made material

    I've connected some lightning plugs but they didn't last long enough at the switches even if you don't have to use it often. I'm waiting to see what happens with this one which is very practical with its 8 sockets.

    Practical multi-socket

    The cable is long enough, and the spacing between the sockets allows plugs with transformers to be connected without worry.
    For the protection against overvoltage, it remains to be seen how long it will last.
