Overview
The Tripp Lite TLP74R Protect It! is a seven-outlet AC surge protector designed for computers, workstations, telecom equipment and other sensitive electronics. It provides 1080 joules of surge suppression, a 4-foot power cord and a diagnostic LED that indicates surge protection status.
Outlets and Power Distribution
The TLP74R provides seven NEMA 5-15R outlets, including six right-angle outlets and one designated transformer outlet. The transformer outlet accommodates a large transformer plug without blocking the remaining receptacles. The unit is rated for 120V AC, 60Hz operation and up to 15A or 1800W.
Surge Protection and Controls
AC surge suppression is rated at 1080 joules with a response time of less than 1 nanosecond. Protection covers normal-mode H-N and common-mode N-G/H-G surge paths, with a 150V RMS clamping voltage and 400V UL 1449 let-through rating. A combination illuminated power switch and 15A circuit breaker controls and protects all outlets.
Mounting and Installation
Integrated keyhole mounting slots allow the TLP74R to be secured to a wall, desk or other suitable surface. The 14 AWG SJT power cord measures 4 feet (1.22 m) and terminates in a NEMA 5-15P plug.
Key Features
- Seven NEMA 5-15R outlets with six right-angle receptacles
- 1080-joule AC surge suppression
- 15A circuit breaker with illuminated on/off switch
- Diagnostic LED confirms surge protection status
- Integrated keyhole mounting slots and 4-foot power cord
Applications
The TLP74R can be used for desktop computers, workstations, printers, networking equipment, telecom systems, home computing equipment and other compatible 120V electronics requiring AC surge protection.
DC Supplies Product Note
The TLP74R is intended for AC power protection and does not provide telephone/DSL, coaxial or Ethernet surge protection. Separate protection equipment is required when those signal lines also need surge protection.
