How to Install Wiremold Perma Power 6-Outlet Surge Suppressor/Protector
Setting up your Wiremold Perma Power surge protector is straightforward and requires only a few simple steps. Follow these guidelines to ensure optimal protection and performance:
- Step 1 — Choose a stable, accessible location near your power outlets and the devices you want to protect. Position the unit so the outlets face upward or to the side in a way that minimizes cable strain and keeps cables organized.
- Step 2 — Uncoil the power cord and route it away from heat sources, moisture, and high-traffic areas to prevent wear. Avoid tight bends that could degrade insulation or impede performance.
- Step 3 — Plug the surge suppressor into a grounded wall outlet, ensuring the connection is secure. Check that any protection indicator light or status display (if present) becomes illuminated, confirming the device is active and protecting your gear.
- Step 4 — Connect your devices to the six outlets in a balanced manner. Distribute power across the outlets to prevent overloading a single circuit, especially when using high-draw equipment like gaming PCs, laser printers, or external storage arrays.
- Step 5 — Keep the unit easily accessible for periodic checks and future maintenance. If you move equipment or reconfigure your workspace, re-evaluate outlet assignments to maintain optimal protection. If any indication suggests a fault or degraded protection, replace the unit following manufacturer guidance.
