[TenTec] Good Surge Supressor

[Robert & Linda McGraw K4TAX]

Most building supply places, i.e. Home Depot, Lowe's, have a "secondary 
surge arrestor" available in their electrical department.  It is attached to 
the main breaker panel.  It has 3 wires, 2 black and 1 white that connect to 
L1  & L2 and ground.   It protects the entire house.  Cost is about $29 or 
so.  Well worth it and easy to install.  Just hang it across any 2 pole 
breaker such as AC or range, etc.  Lot cheaper and much better than all 
those stupid poorly designed plastic box power strips that have the ground 
attached internally by a rivet.
