Be a cheapskate, use lower rating ELCB.
Spend more on your ground, original grounding point provided by developer are not deep enough.

Hi,

Is it 1 cal-lab for 1 equipment? Or 1 cal-lab can used for multiple equipments?
Thank you.

Guess you make it wrong already.
For your friend case, it is coming through the phone line. Happen to me twice. I'm using lower rating ELCB.

interested on this... how much is the cost with installation for double story house with astro & streamyx? I have those belkin & cal-lab but if it can stop from surge at earlier stage much better and cost to buy belkin & cal-lab is not cheap as well if you need to buy more than one or two

huiyoo.... yeah I got one... but if installing cal-lab much cheaper than those at db... then have to get more cal-lab...

I think he mentioned somewhere it's RM500 onwards for those at db...
I'm using 5 

But why just the phone related stuffs only fried?
This is something we really look in to it.
As said, if it is from the main electric cable, the damage will be more, but if the damage like isolated like this, I highly doubt it.
If we don't make it clear then same sheet will happen again.
Till today, I fried 4 motherboards, 4 display cards, 4 power supply, 3 modems and 1 cordless phone. All of them are covered under warranty, so FOC, MBs only the network port fried which affecting display card and power supply.
An electrician when have a first glance check already can tell from where the frying job starts.

Yup, fiber optic does not transmit current during digital stage.
But it will be interesting to know the actual cause on this.
Autogate board need to check the operating voltage, if low voltage type, sure it will blow fast.
And if the lightning really strike the pole, the TNB digital meter will be first to go. Happen to my house once which ended up I got 75% of discount for my bill.

how is the setup of this cal lab?

socket - calLab - equiment?
is it like an extension?
