Yes, I know about those three lines protection.

In MR DIY powerstrip, if there is power surge and all four switches are turned on, only Green socket will be protected from surge while the Blue, Orange and Red sockets will be hit by surge.

In this case, the MOV should be installed as shown below in red line (Point of entry):

This way, all four sockets will be protected from surge coming from Live wire by redirecting surge to Neutral wire out.
I have no idea why the MOV is installed that way protecting only one socket sweat.gif  and still pass SIRIM.

For components parallel with each other, theoretically install at the front or end the effect still the same.

But I doubt a SPD with rated power 0.4 W can protect you at all.

I think this one is false advertisement, since it does have surge protection but never mention on 1 socket only.
