8.Question:What is the difference between 540 joule energy rating protection and 1800 watts protection rating? Which matters most, joules?
Answer:I had to look this up myself for a good explanation. But here is what I found.
"Energy absorption/dissipation - This rating, given in joules, tells you how much energy the surge protector can absorb before it fails. A higher number indicates greater protection. Look for a protector that is at least rated at 200 to 400 joules. For better protection, look for a rating of 600 joules or more."
