APC PM5-RS

High quality workmanship

The American company ARS has been gaining credibility in the market for surge protectors and other electrical appliances for several years, and its products are famous for their combination of excellent performance and reliability. And the hero of this review, the PM5-RS surge protector for 5 outlets is no exception to the rule.

Maximum load 2300 W

The 1.8-metre filter is designed for a maximum load of 2300 W, that is, without a second thought, you can plug a boiler and a washing machine into it without fear of overload. What can we say about smaller equipment. And during power surges, the filter stabilizes the output voltage or simply turns off the power. At the same time, the device also turns off in case of overheating of the case, for example, if the power of the switched on equipment is too high. In order to better understand what is happening, 2 additional light indicators were placed on the case, the first one indicates the operation of the protection, the second one indicates the presence of grounding.

Childproof curtains

Add traditional child-proof curtains to this and you get the most reliable surge protector that you can leave on the floor without worrying about anything. Alternatively, wall mounting is available. It is a pity that, given the price tag, the guys from ARS did not add at least one USB port to the case. Well, the length limit (maximum 1.8 metres) reduces the number of use cases.
