IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION! DO NOT connect to an ungrounded outlet. DO NOT use with 2-wire extension cords or adapters. This surge suppressor is designed
for indoor use only. Install the surge suppressor away from heat-emitting appliances such as radiators or heat registers. Do not install where
excessive moisture is present. Do not plug extension cords into it. Never install electrical, telephone, network or coaxial wiring during a lightning
storm. Do not drill into any part of the housing or open the housing for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
All models feature an internal protection that will disconnect
the surge-protective component at the end of its useful life but
will maintain power to the load—now unprotected.
Installation
Mount Your Surge Suppressor (Optional Installation): If desired, mount
your surge suppressor on a wall or other sturdy, vertical surface. However, you
must mount the surge suppressor prior to connecting your equipment. Place a
sheet of paper over the surge suppressor's mounting holes and mark their cen-
ters with a push pin. Next, place this template over the desired area and mark
with the push pins. Install screws (user supplied) into the marks until ¼ in. (0.5
cm.) of the screw heads are exposed. Mount the surge suppressor over the
screw heads and slide into place.
Connect Your Surge Suppressor to the AC Power Line: Plug the surge
suppressor's power cord into a standard, 3-wire grounded 120V AC, 60 Hz. outlet.
Turn Your Surge Suppressor ON: Press the surge suppressor's power switch
until it illuminates, indicating power is supplied at the surge suppressor's outlets.
Check Your Surge Suppressor's Diagnostic Indicator Lights: Check the
LEDs prior to connecting your equipment. They will indicate various operating
conditions when the surge suppressor is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet
and the surge suppressor's power switch is on.
"PROTECTED" or "PROTECTION PRESENT" LED (Available on
Select Models Only): Indicates the surge suppression components are intact and
providing complete protection against surges. If this LED does not illuminate,
some of the surge suppression components are not functioning, and the unit
should be replaced. Call Tripp Lite Customer Support at (773) 869-1234.
"GROUNDED" LED (Available on Select Models Only): Indicates wall
outlet is grounded and surge protection can properly function. If this light
DOES NOT illuminate and power is present, consult a qualified electrician
to examine your outlet's wiring.
"LINE OK" LED (Available on Select Models Only): Indicates that the
wall outlet is properly wired and no fault conditions exist.
"FAULT" LED (Available on Select Models Only): Indicates faulty wall outlet
wiring (phases are reversed, ground is missing, etc.). If this LED illumi-
nates, have a qualified electrician fix the fault immediately. This LED will
illuminate in the presence of most common wiring faults, even a loose wall
outlet, but not necessarily every possible type of fault. If an electrician
determines that a fault does not exist, and the LED continues to illuminate,
contact Tripp Lite for service.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's AC Outlets: Plug your
equipment's power cords (including 2-wire devices) into the surge suppressor's
AC outlets. Special pairs of outlets ("Isolated Filter Banks") provide an extra
level of filtering between components. For example, if you plug a receiver into
an Isolated Filter Bank outlet, it will not be affected by interference generated
by a DVD player connected elsewhere on the surge suppressor. Every outlet
pair (two outlets, one above the other, separated by a screw) is an Isolated
Filter Bank.* All models feature special widely-spaced outlets to accommodate
transformers without covering other outlets. DO NOT plug in extension cords.
DO NOT OVERLOAD the surge suppressor's outlets. The surge suppressor
can accommodate a total equipment load of up to 12 amps (whether plugged
into a single outlet or spread out over multiple outlets). If the load on the surge
suppressor exceeds 12 amps, the circuit breaker** will trip and the outlets will stop
providing power. If the circuit breaker trips, reduce the load by unplugging
some devices. Depress the circuit breaker or switch to "RESET" to reset the
breakers and restore power.
* Models with 10 or more outlets are an exception; they include two Isolated Filter Banks, located
nearest the LEDs. ** Circuit breakers are integrated into the power switch on select models and
offered as a separate feature on other models.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's Phone Jacks
(Optional Installation): Connect a phone cable from the wall jack directly to
the surge suppressor's RJ-style phone jack labeled "IN." Connect a phone
cable from the surge suppressor's RJ-style phone jack labeled "OUT" directly
to the device to be protected. The surge suppressor must always be the first item
connected in line from the wall jack. The surge suppressor must be plugged into
a 3-wire, grounded AC outlet for phone line surge protection to work.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's Network Jacks*
(Optional Installation. Available on Select Models Only): Connect a data
cord from the wall jack or cable/DSL modem directly to the surge suppressor's
network jack labeled "IN." Connect a data cord from the surge suppressor's
network jack labeled "OUT" directly to the device to be protected. The surge
suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the Ethernet
source (typically a wall jack). The surge suppressor must be plugged into a
3-wire grounded AC outlet for network line surge protection to work.
* 10/100 BaseT/TX, Token Ring. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's Coaxial Jacks
(Optional Installation): Connect a coaxial cable from the wall jack directly to
the surge suppressor's "F" style coaxial jack labeled "IN." Connect a coaxial
cable from the surge suppressor's "F" style coaxial jack labeled "OUT" directly to the

device to be connected. Select models include additional sets of coaxial jacks
for simultaneous connection and protection of additional devices on additional
lines (cable, antenna or satellite). Make sure that each device and its corresponding
wall jack are connected to corresponding "IN" and "OUT" jacks on the surge
suppressor. The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected in line
from the coaxial wall jack. The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire
grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to work. Make sure coax
cables connected to satellite dishes, antennas, etc. are also grounded.
Attach Power Cord Labels (Optional Installation. Available on Select
Models Only): Coordinate surge suppressor outlets with component power cords
for easy identification. Surge suppressor outlet labels are simply a suggested
connection scheme; you can connect any type of component to any of the surge
suppressor's outlets.

Ultimate Lifetime Insurance Policy
(Valid in the U.S. and Canada Only)
Tripp Lite warrants, for the lifetime of the product, (at Tripp Lite's option) to repair or replace (on a pro rata basis) directly connected
equipment that is damaged due to power transients while properly connected to Tripp Lite products offering the Ultimate Lifetime
Insurance Policy. Power transients include spikes and surges on the AC power, data or telephone lines that the Tripp Lite products
have been designed to protect against (as recognized by industry standards).
AC Power Line Transients: To claim damages, the Tripp Lite product must be plugged into a properly wired and grounded outlet. No
extension cords or other electrical connections may be used. The installation must comply with all applicable electrical and safety
codes set forth by the National Electrical Code (NEC). Except as provided above, this warranty does not cover any damage to prop-
erly connected electronic equipment resulting from a cause other than an "AC power transient". If user meets all of the above require-
ments, Tripp Lite will repair or replace (at Tripp Lite's option) equipment up to the specified value (See Ultimate Lifetime Insurance
Policy Limits). No coverage is allowed for damage entering from telephone or data lines, unless they are separately protected, as
described below.
Telephone and Data Line Transients: Tripp Lite will repair or replace directly connected equipment that is damaged by transients on
telephone and/or data lines only when all such paths are protected by a Tripp Lite protection product(s) and the AC power (utility) line
is simultaneously protected by a Tripp Lite power protection device (UPS, surge suppressor or line conditioner) with Ultimate Lifetime
Insurance coverage. Additional telephone and/or data line connected devices downstream must have their own telephone and/or
dataline protectors.
Reimbursement dollar limits will be equal to that of the Tripp Lite power protection protector. Coverage is excluded where a suitable
environment for the protection device is not provided, including, but not limited to, lack of a proper safety ground. Telephone service
equipment must also include a properly installed and operating "primary protection" device at the telephone service entrance (such
devices are normally added during telephone line installation).
All above warranties are null and void if the Tripp Lite product has been improperly installed, tampered with or altered in any way, or
if the connected equipment was not used under normal operating conditions or in accordance with any labels or instructions. All claims
under this warranty must be submitted in writing to Tripp Lite within 30 days of the occurrence or the claim will not be considered.
This warranty does not include damage resulting from accident or misuse, and applies to the domestic (USA & Canada) use of these
products only.
Tripp Lite reserves the right to determine whether the damage to the connected equipment is due to malfunction of the Tripp Lite product
by requesting the equipment in question be sent to Tripp Lite for examination. This policy is above and beyond, only to the extent
needed, of that provided by any coverage of connected equipment provided by other sources, including, but not limited to, any man-
ufacturer's warranty and/or any extended warranties.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE, TRIPP LITE MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some states do not permit limitation or exclusion of
implied warranties; therefore, the aforesaid limitation(s) or exclusion(s) may not apply to purchaser.
EXCEPT AS PROVIDED ABOVE, IN NO EVENT WILL TRIPP LITE BE LIABLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGE. Specifically, Tripp Lite is not liable for any costs, such as lost profits or revenue, loss of equipment, loss of use
of equipment, loss of software, loss of data, costs of substitutes, claims by third parties or otherwise. Coverage also does not apply
to connected medical and industrial equipment.
To receive service under this warranty, you must be the original purchaser/user of the product in question. You must obtain a Returned
Material Authorization (RMA) number from Tripp Lite. Products must be returned to Tripp Lite with transportation charges prepaid and
must be accompanied by a brief description of the problem encountered and proof of date and place of purchase.
