2. Surge protector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_protector

   Surge Protection Device (SPD) for installation in a low-voltage distribution board. A surge protector (or spike suppressor, surge suppressor, surge diverter, [1] surge protection device (SPD) or transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS) is an appliance or device intended to protect electrical devices in alternating current (AC) circuits from voltage spikes with very short duration measured in ...

3. Power strip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_strip

   A North American power strip with two USB power ports that includes a built in surge protector. A power strip (also known as a multi-socket, power board and many other variations [a]) is a block of electrical sockets that attaches to the end of a flexible cable (typically with a mains plug on the other end), allowing multiple electrical devices to be powered from a single electrical socket.

5. Varistor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varistor

   Modern varistor schematic symbol, which is the same as a thermistor symbol [ 1 ] A varistor (a.k.a. voltage-dependent resistor (VDR)) is a surge protecting electronic component with an electrical resistance that varies with the applied voltage. [ 2 ] It has a nonlinear, non- ohmic current–voltage characteristic that is similar to that of a diode.

7. Transient-voltage-suppression diode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient-voltage...

   A transient-voltage-suppression diode can respond to over-voltages faster than other common over-voltage protection components such as varistors or gas discharge tubes. The actual clamping occurs in roughly one picosecond, but in a practical circuit the inductance of the wires leading to the device imposes a higher limit.
