Hi, I tried to look through your list and there are so many combination i got a little confuse.

I currently have 2 different "part" of the house i wan to protect.

1st Part: 1 modem + streamyx line (no spliter), 1 wifi router, 1 NAS (connected to the wifi router thru short LAN cable)
(All this share the same wall socket)

2nd Part: Computer (wifi), Misc small stuff (fan, phone charger, etc)
(All this share the same wall socket)

Can you recommend something to protect both of this~ Thanks

Edit:

From what i can see, that i need 2 MDSC0039 for the 2 wall socket and 1 SP9201DAF. Correct?

Hi TS,

I got an MDSC0039 2000w from you previously. Unfortunately at 4.30am on a clear night, no raining or anything, suddenly it sacrifices itself (Maybe power surge. I not sure. First time happen) But the thing is my computer power supply also suffer the same fate. The computer was off at that moment but its power switch was at ON position. Any idea why?

Will it make a difference if i was using the 1000w version of MDSC0039?

p/s: I'm not blaming anyone. I just saying my experience and try to figure out if i can avoid it in the future.

Thanks

no understand ur statement...
"But the thing is my computer power supply also suffer the same fate. The computer was off at that moment but its power switch was at ON position."
you means ur PSU burnt along with cal-lab?

but MDSC0039 1000watt is sufficient for 1 set of PC setup... smile.gif

Ops. OK let me clarify.

MDSC0039 2000w = Burn
PC PSU = Burn
PC = OFF
PC power socket = ON

Hope you understand. So my question is, should i use the MDSC0039 1000w instead in the future to avoid the same thing happening?

FYI, mobo is the one to control the PC operation (on/off) but PSU are the one keep supplying the power source to mobo...
if PSU detected signal from mobo, the PSU will supply power to all the hardware thru all the connectors...

what i means here it could be equipment wear and tear as the TNB still feeding the PSU and it still operating on hot standby mode...
same case like TV switched off but TNB still feeding power into its power supply unit for hot standby purpose, even though pour water on TVs PSU and it will short circuit as well even though under standby mode...

so if the equipments short circuited due to wear and tear (out of cal lab's control), it will effected cal-lab operation too...
believe u have the experienced that bad / damaged equipments will tripped the ELCB...

anyway, it still difficult to justify whether cal-lab failed as we have to concerned on equipment wear and tear, improper equipments usage & handling, unstability electric source, used cheap electric components, etc...  that the reasons doesn't cover for such incidents increased the probability of damages of equipments which wasn't caused by lightning...

Thanks for the reply. Anyway, I am not implying in any way that cal-lab fail.

So in summary, you're saying its possible that my power supply short circuit while on standby mode?

Right now I have MDSC0039 2000w > power strip > (other things) & PC

Should i attach another MDSC0039 1000w on that power strip to make it another island for the PC only? So it will be like so:

MDSC0039 2000w > power strip > (other things) & MDSC0039 1000w > PC

Right now, I want to avoid in future case if the same thing happen it won't kill my other device charging off this power strip. (Lucky that night I didn't charge anything). I only have 1 power outlet. So there is no other way around using a shared power strip. Hope you understand. Thanks

no recommended for linear connection on cal-lab as may effecting the protection efficiency..

but you can split the power source direct from TNB wall socket by using 3 way multi socket...
so the connection will look alike like this

TNB
  V
3way socket > MDSC0039 > PC
  V
MDSC0039 > Multi Socket > Other Devices

smile.gif Thanks. I will sent you another PM to get another MDSC0039 then.
