Power Protection

[backdraftbbq]

I have a new comp trailer and I'm going to have AC, smoker controllers and possibly a fridge. I will also have my own generators. What is everyone using to protect their equipment from surges, under voltage, etc? I've seen alot of different options out there and I'm not sure what to go with.

Not the cheapest, but very popular with the RV crowd. They have a base surge protector, and a more expensive unit that filters for power quality including off cycle power, under voltage, over voltage, open ground, open neutral, etc. It also shows your current power consumption, handy when contest organizers say you can't plug in your big rig because it uses too much power.

(With the on board 12v systems, my class A toyhauler can be set up to use a lot less power than many comp trailers. Sometimes you have to prove it.)

We use a 15amp power strip with built in breaker...
