Compact surge protector with USB

The Tripp Lite TLP36USB is a spherical surge protector that provides three AC outlets and four USB charging ports in a single black unit. It connects to a 120 volt wall receptacle and offers a 540 joule AC suppression rating. The device measures 3.3 in x 3.6 in x 3.6 in and weighs 1.2 lb.

Home and office users needing USB charging

This protector suits anyone who wants to charge phones, tablets or other USB devices while also protecting three mains-powered items from voltage spikes. Buyers who require more than three AC outlets or a higher joule rating for sensitive equipment should consider other options.

540 joule suppression rating

The 540 joule AC suppression rating is the key specification that determines how much surge energy the unit can absorb before it must be replaced. Match this rating to the value of the connected electronics to decide if this protector meets the requirement.

Questions about this item

Does the Tripp Lite TLP36USB need a 120-volt wall outlet with a Type B three-pin plug to operate?

Yes, the unit requires a standard 120-volt Type B three-pin wall outlet for its six-foot input cord.

Can I still use devices that draw more than the 4.8-amp total USB limit if I plug them into the three AC outlets instead?

The three AC outlets handle standard household loads up to the branch-circuit rating, so higher-draw devices can use those while the four USB ports share the 4.8-amp limit.

How do I confirm the 540-joule surge protection is active after I plug the TLP36USB in?

The built-in protection indicator light will illuminate when the surge circuitry is functional; if that light goes out, the protective components have been consumed and the unit should be replaced.
