Zero Surge Inc. - Surge Removal Filters

By Peter C. Oesterwinter, Director of Sales  

 

In part one of the presentation, Peter will explain why a surge suppressor is needed to protect your electrical circuits from damaging rushes of electricity through the power cord. Electrical devices - computers, TV's, stereos, appliances, telecommunications networks and on and on - have transformed our lives. They're wonderful. Unfortunately, they have to be plugged in. That leaves them vulnerable to power surges, the most spectacular of which are lightning strikes that get into power lines and "fry" everything in their paths. These monsters can send up to 6,000 volts and 3,000 amps through your system for 50 microseconds or so which is more than enough to reduce any electronic network to a smoking wreck. Peter will explain the various types of surge protectors available and what protection they actually provide.

In part two of the presentation, Peter will demonstrate the Zero Surge surge suppressors which are the first products to meet the government's highest surge suppression standards. Peter will have a surge generator available to test your current surge protector. Be aware that his generator could destroy your surge protector if it can not hold the manufacturer's stated surge amount. Perhaps that destruction would be good since if it happened in your home, your equipment would also be ruined. 

If you have invested a considerable amount of money in your home PC and stereo systems, you need to protect them adequately. Come see the products Zero Surge offers for those valuable items using the best protection in the industry.

 A limited number of units will be available for sale at the meeting at special prices for only NJCC members.
