Surge protection for SF Line 3

ZeroSurge, BrickWall, and Torus Power are licensees of SurgeX, not the other way around. They are the same basic series-mode technology, but only SurgeX has 21st century ZER0 Let-Through 3-wire technology while the 3 licensees are only allowed by SurgeX to use the old mid-nineties 2-wire technology that slowly drains surge energy to the neutral wire. The SurgeX device does not pass any energy out to the neutral or the ground. The excess energy is converted in a small amount of heat inside the box. No surge energy leaves the box.

Rockadanny - That is correct. The surge goes through a large inductor coil to clamp the surge, the remainder is stored in capacitors and then "worked to death" internally. No surge energy leaves the box on either the ground or the neutral wire. I've seen a video demonstration that SurgeX does all the time at trade shows using a high power surge generator. The MOVs blow up while the SurgeX device also plugged into the surge generator just sits there fat, dumb, and happy, absorbing the energy and dissipating it as a small amount of heat inside the box demonstration after demonstration, day after day.

Also, I was mistaken myself saying that ZeroSurge, BrickWall, and TorusPower are licensees of SurgeX. ONLY ZeroSurge is a licensee which then makes re-branded BrickWalls, and sells series-mode modules to TorusPower
