I was taught a lesson several years ago. My $1000 computer was on a surge protector and my $10,000 A/V system was plugged into the wall. A lightning srike on an oak tree in my front yard killed the TV power supply and for some reason the right channels of two amps. I use large APC, 1100w UPS's on two parts of the system now. I believe the voltage regulation and a pure sine wave output are good reasons for using them.
"MOV" surge supressors fail and leak stray current from the 120 volt line to the green ground wire in the power cords creating a ground loop. MOV's are very poor and degrade rapidly with simple surge hits causing contamination of the green ground wire which is there strictly as a safety ground wire for personel protection in case of raw AC leakage to the equipment cabinet.
Clamped surge energy also rings like hell contaminating the neutral and AC line circuit beyond belief. "Zero Surge inc.,offers superb surge protection of advanced technology that never contaminates the ground safety wire and it passes Underwriters Laboratories IEEE Compliance testing of zero failures when subjected to 10 years of lightening stroke events. Zero Surge products do not shut down the AC Power delivery in the event of any Surge including all Storm Lightening events.There has never been a failure to Capture a Surge of any kind by "Zero Surge Products" in the 20 years of Zero Surge Production.
Don you can use your APC 1100W UPS following the Zero Surge Supressor to good advantage.

After this you should study all the items in this Surge Suppression Info (http://www.zerosurge.com/sitemap.cfm#) Group bellow: Note! the second item in this group=" How Zero Surge Technology Works (http://www.zerosurge.com/howpqfilterworks.cfm)" is fantastic! It exlains it how Zero Surge functions by dumping all of the surge energy safely into an isolated trash can, for example a 6000 volt 3000 ampere lightening stroke Slew Rate is reduced to less than 100 volts/microsecnd, with a let through voltage of less tha 10 volts. Zero Surge products are garanteed for 10 years.
