Still never answered - embarrassing questions: - Why do the only 2 examples of protection in the IEEE guide use plug-in suppressors? - Why does the NIST guide says plug-in suppressors are "the easiest solution"? . > A protector > is only as effective as its earth ground. . The required religious mantra.
Still never seen - a source that agrees with w_ that plug–in suppressors do NOT work.
For real science read the IEEE and NIST guides. Both say plug-in suppressors are effective.
