Eaton TLP864USBB – 8‑Outlet Surge Protector, 1800 J

Overview :

The Eaton TLP864USBB is a corded 8‑outlet surge protector with integrated USB charging ports designed to defend workstations, network devices, and small office electronics against AC power spikes and transient events. It is used by IT staff, desktop support, and facilities teams to provide basic surge suppression and power distribution at desks, offices, and non‑critical equipment locations.

This unit features a surge energy rating of 1800 joules, eight NEMA 5‑15R outlets, and four USB‑A ports sharing 4.2 A total for charging mobile devices. A 6 ft (1.83 m) cord with a NEMA 5‑15P plug allows flexible placement relative to AC outlets. A lighted on/off switch and LED protection indicator provide basic status feedback.

Deployment contexts include home offices, small business desks, and IT support areas where surge protection is needed for PCs, monitors, VoIP phones, wireless access points, printers, and similar devices. It is not intended for primary surge protection at service entrance panels, industrial electrical environments, or dedicated server racks requiring IEC rack mount PDUs or UPS systems.

The housing is a black plastic strip with keyhole mounting slots for wall or under‑desk attachment. Built‑in overload protection via an internal breaker disconnects outlets upon surge circuit failure. The unit complies with North American safety standards including UL/cUL listing and RoHS directives.

In practice, install TLP864USBB adjacent to clusters of desktop electronics or peripheral devices. For environments with high energy transient events or mission‑critical systems, consider higher‑tier surge protective devices (SPDs) installed at dedicated distribution panels or backed by UPS systems.
