Tripp Lite TLP66USB 5-Outlet Surge Protector Tower
Desk and floor power distribution with surge protection
Overview
The Tripp Lite TLP66USB is a five outlet surge protector built as a vertical tower rather than a flat strip, so the sockets face outward on a unit that stands on a desk or floor. It carries a 1200 joule suppression rating, full normal and common mode protection, EMI/RFI filtering and a 15A resettable circuit breaker. Three USB-A ports share 3.1A for charging phones and tablets, and the 6 ft braided cord ends in a right angle NEMA 5-15P plug. Eaton rates the unit for 1800W at 120V and lists mounting holes or slots in the housing.
Key Highlights
- 1200 joule surge suppression with a 1200A maximum spike current, plus full normal mode (H to N) and common mode (N to G, H to G) line protection
- Five NEMA 5-15R outlets spaced widely apart so bulky transformer plugs do not block the sockets beside them
- Three USB-A ports share 3.1A for phones, tablets and other small devices without taking up an AC outlet
- Six foot braided 14 AWG cord with a right angle NEMA 5-15P plug reaches a floor outlet without a sharp cable bend
- Limited lifetime warranty with $7,500 connected equipment insurance for the US, Canada and Puerto Rico
