[sci.electronics] Receptacle Strips with Built-in Surge Suppression

pep@notecnirp.Princeton.EDU (Pat Parseghian) (06/23/87)

We would like to equip the offices in our new building with wall-mounted
strips of receptacles with built-in surge suppression.  That is, we
don't want to hang surge-suppression strips or boxes off individual wall
receptacles; we want one strip, or set of receptacles, with this
feature built in.

I have checked catalogues and called several manufacturers of surge
protectors; no one has an off-the-shelf product of this design.  I'm
expecting a return call from the surge-protection person at UL.

If you know of such a product, please reply.  Suggestions about how
to determine the existence of such a product are also welcome.
