Thanks to all who replied. Good advice in there amongst the SAAs.
I was hoping to see more brand names/models to save me some work. I have to go buy all this stuff!
Oh well, it hasn't been easy so far. Might as well get at it. I do appreciate the filter and water pressure rate information.
Does anyone else think the low voltage cut-out for popular surge protectors is too low at 102 VAC? I would not want the available voltage to be below 110VAC for sustained periods on my air conditioners and other devices sensitive to low voltage. It is too bad the hi/lo parameters are not user-selected values. Is it impractical to try to maintain a 110VAC minimum?
There is much controversy on the use of autoformers to maintain voltages. I have such a device rated for 20A with variable output to 17% over input voltage. I am considering using it on a selected circuit (probably A/C). Would I be a bad neighbour for use of such a device?
