Description APC Surge Arrest 5 outlets The APC Surge Arrest PM5-UK is a compact surge protector designed to protect home and office electronics from power surges, spikes, and electromagnetic interference (EMI). Made for the UK market, it includes five BS1363A outlets. This allows users to connect multiple devices such as computers, monitors, printers, and networking equipment (APC, Schneider Electric E-shop). Key Features: Surge Protection: The unit absorbs 918 joules of surge energy, effectively protecting devices from sudden voltage spikes (Schneider Electric E-shop). Fail-Safe Mode: If a major surge occurs, the device disconnects connected equipment. This prevents further damage (APC). Overload Indicator: An LED lights up when the connected devices draw more power than the protector’s capacity. This alerts users to potential overloads (APC). EMI/RFI Noise Filtering: The device reduces electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, helping sensitive electronics run smoothly. Safety Features: Safety shutters protect against shocks, and a wiring fault indicator alerts users to electrical issues (APC). Environmental Compliance: The SurgeArrest PM5-UK complies with RoHS and REACh regulations. It also carries the Green Premium™ label, highlighting APC’s commitment to sustainability (APC).
