SERIES II 16 AMP POWER CONDITIONERS

DEFINITIONS	THREE YEAR LIMITED
	WARRANTY

SPIKE: A pulse of energy on the power line. Spikes can have voltages as high as 6000 volts. Though they are usually of very short duration, their energy can be considerable, enough to damage sensitive solid-state components in audio and computer equipment. Spikes can also foul switch contacts and degrade wiring insulation. They are an unavoidable component of electric power. They are caused unpredictably by electric motors (on the premises or outside) switching on or off, or by utility company maintenance operations, lightning strikes and other factors. Spikes (also called surges or transients) are absorbed by special components in the SMP+ circuitry to maintain safe voltage levels and protect your equipment.

RFI/EMI INTERFERENCE: Noise from RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) or EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) involves lower voltages and less energy than is found in spikes, but it is continuous rather than transient in nature.

It is not likely to cause damage, but it can certainly be annoying, producing static in audio circuits, “snow” on video screens, or garbled data in computers. Noise can be introduced into AC lines by nearby radio transmitters, certain kinds of lighting, electric motors, and other sources. Because noise occurs at higher frequencies than the 50 or 60 Hz AC line, it can be effectively reduced by low-pass filters.
