Intermatic IG2240 IMSK Intermatic Smart Guard IG2240 IMSK Whole Surge Protector Review

Well made with one exception. The pigtail installed by the manufacturer was not connected according to the NEC code. It has been miswired by the manufacturer to supply power to the bottom of the switch used to disconnect (see attached drawing). The NEC specifies that vertically mounted circuit breakers should supply line voltage to the top lugs and load current to the bottom lugs. After fixing this, I installed it at my mom's house after losing 3 circuit boards in the dishwasher due to power…

It would have been five stars if there wasn't one detail. For installation you need an outlet for both hot legs of the service. There are wires for neutral and ground, but for some weird reason there's only a black (or red) wire for the hot side. you need two I need to make a wire to properly connect this device. If they can't provide all leads, there is no point in providing any of them. This is not a serious problem, but a real annoyance that indicates possible poor quality control. In…

We've had very bad spikes and spikes for months and I'm in, two very expensive Apple Extreme routers have burned up as has my Macintosh computer and a few other items around our house. Despite the fact that all of my devices were plugged into outlets designed to provide protection from surges, my stuff was getting fried. My nephew is a military freak and an electrician and he told me to get this. It was easily installed by my electrician and now hangs on the wall in my garage on a service…

I purchased this Revain product to install in my home after a power surge destroyed some surge suppression band pass filters last month. Almost everything in your house (except the sofa), including kitchen appliances, has at least one expensive electronic circuit board that is susceptible to surges (both internal and external). Surge protectors with really high capacity tend to pass smaller surges directly to your devices, so it might seem that a mid-range surge protector is the best way to…

Wanted to wait a bit before writing this review. Now I have. Thunderstorms in southern Mississippi, if you haven't experienced them yet, are events that inspire deep theological reflection and increased church attendance. In the restoration of our 150 year old historic home, a very expensive, highly complex, and highly efficient system of 19 mini-split units replaced the HVAC parts waste collection that had accumulated over the years. LG's system was very efficient (cooling a 5,200-square-foot…

Bought this after a lightning strike damaged our electronics for about $6,000. Hope this helps with future power surges. Although I understand that a surge is a godsend when it comes to damaging various items in your home. For the price it's worth it! Very easy assembly, probably not a project for every DIY enthusiast. But anyone with basic wiring experience can install this. Your switch box type will require an additional double pole switch which is not included in this package for…

This surge protector is amazing. I live in Southwest Florida, the lighting capital of the US, so having a reliable surge protector for your entire home is a must. It protects everything connected to your power grid. I asked my neighbor to install it as he is a certified electrician who owns his own residential and commercial electrical business. He said he was very impressed with the device and said it was the future of network filters. Unlike other whole house surge protectors, this device can

I only gave it a low rating of Easy to Install because this installation is not for the faint of heart or those who don't know anything about electronics. It's not a do-it-yourself/no-skills job. Now there is good. The technical reviews for this product are great. Raven price is good. Installing the module means a $45 replacement after the mod is released. Since I bought a spare mod, my wife with electrical issues can replace the mod when I'm out. Our internal service panel is located in the…
