EATON CHSPT2ULTRA Ultimate Surge Protection 3rd Edition, 2.38 Length, 5.25 Width 7.5 Height

This is a great product that saves your home.

Easy to install. But caution when connecting the main device’s wires to a Siemens 50 amp breaker. This Siemens breaker is NOT designed to clamp on 14 gauge stranded wire. The 50 amp breaker is made for 8, 6, or 4 gauge wire (as stated on the breaker). Best to connect with thicker wire to the breaker and then pig tail to the device wire. I used 12 gauge solid wire and it was much more snug. The device wire (14 gauge stranded) is not as snugged and easier to pull out if attached directly to 50 amp breaker.

Very easy to install for me, so far works great. Priced at a affordable price.

We had no equipment failures due to power surges due to power outages prior to installation, we’ve had three power outages since installing. Lost two coffee makers, a computer and a router. Going to replace with a different brand.

Gave it 4 out of 5 stars only due to uncertainty. Had a lightning strike before ordering it which did a lot of damage. Had a second lightning strike only a few days after installing it and adding a supplemental ground rod. Second strike took out a florescent shop light ballast in the barn and the power supply to one of our DirecTV receivers in the house but nothing as serious as the first strike. Would like to think the reduction in damage was due to the new surge protector.

With previous wiring experience, this went in no problem. Now that Ive installed a whole house Surge Protection Device, well never get a bad surge again lol One comment; The male threads on the Surge device are not the same a standard 1/2 NPT. I re-did the threads on the female adaptor.

If you have an Eaton box, buy a BRSURGE/CHSURGE. Fits right in 2 slots, and it protects to 30,000 amps (I think). Its only around 60 bucks at the time of this posting. If you want to get something good, go with the crazy Semens one thats around 300 bucks. The wires in that one are way longer Im told. Certainly you dont want the wires to be too long, but long enough for the installation without a sketchy wirenut kinda thing would be nice. This didnt work well in an Eaton box; wires were not long enough.

Easy to install, I just kind of left it sitting on the wires inside the breaker box, you dont need to go to town to mount it. Just keep the wires as short as possible for greatest protection.

I had it installed and it was done in no time at all.
