Separate Portable Surge Module & Pedestal Tester

The new portable surge protector kits include 2 separate parts, a power pedestal tester and surge module. The power pedestal tester allows you to test the quality of the power before connecting your RV. The surge module can simply be left connected to your cordset so you don't have to worry about leaving it behind. All surge modules are sacrificial items intended to protect the vehicle's electrical system. By having the surge module separate you can still use the pedestal tester and replace the surge module when the indicator light signals the surge protection has been depleted.

All-in-one Portable Surge & Testing

The tried and true all-in-one surge protectors are portable devices that have both surge protection and pedestal testing in one unit. Simply plug the device into the power pedestal to check the quality of your power and then plug in your cordset. You can continue to monitor the quality of power while your RV is connected and surge protected.

Hardwired Protection

The hardwired surge protectors provide the highest level of electrical and surge protection available. They will be hardwired between your vehicle's AC inlet and the electrical panel to protect all AC devices on board. By hard-wiring the surge protection into the vehicle you never run the risk of leaving your surge protector behind and have the peace of mind knowing your protected every time you plug in.

Love This! Worked the First Time I Used It!

Love This! Worked the First Time I Used It!
I wanted something hardwired so I didn't have to screw with it every trip and worry about it getting stolen. It worked the the next two trips I took where both locations had a power outage. One was quick while I was standing outside. I noticed mine went into the time delay to save the AC units. My neighbors came on right away kicking his AC back on right away which is bad for the AC units I'm told. I have double AC units so I care about that. I like it because it also tells you exact line voltage when you are trouble shooting something like a refrigerator relay issue I had.To make install simple and removable I pulled my power center out from it's mounting location. They give plenty of slack in the wiring to do this because that is how the factory did it. I then removed the main line into the panel and routed it to the protector instead. I then got another piece of the same wire at the depot and ran that from the protector to the main panel. I mounted the protector to the floor behind the panel and ran the remote up the wall and mounted it inside the closet inside the front door where all the other controls are. If you have some electrical aptitude, it's not complicated, but heavy gauge wire is more difficult to deal with and has to be cut to exact length when place in the screw terminal because it does not make any tight bends.
