Surge suppressor

A surge suppressing device comprising:

• a power section including a power circuit;
• an intermediate section adjacent to the power section;
• and
• an outlet section adjacent to the intermediate section such that the intermediate section separates the power section and the outlet section, the outlet section including a plurality of utility outlets in electrical communication with the power circuit.

A surge suppressing device comprising:

• a housing having a first face, the housing defining:
• a power section including a power circuit;
• and
• an outlet section including a plurality of utility outlets arranged in three rows on the first face of the housing, wherein the device has a longitudinal axis and the three rows run substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, the three rows including a center row and two peripheral rows, the center row including at least first and second center outlets, the first and second center outlets arranged in top-to-bottom order, the peripheral rows including first and second peripheral outlets, the first and second peripheral outlets arranged in side-to-side order.

A surge suppressing device comprising:

• a housing having a first face, the first face defining;
• a power section, the power section comprising;
• a power circuit having an MOV and a thermal fuse in proximity to the MOV;
• an isolation structure containing the MOV and the thermal fuse, the isolation structure constructed and arranged to isolate the MOV and thermal fuse from at least a portion of the surge suppressing device and to encapsulate emissions from the MOV during an overvoltage event;
• a data section adjacent to the power section, the data section including data interfaces;
• and
• an outlet section adjacent to the data section, the outlet section including a plurality of utility outlets.

A surge suppressing device comprising:

• a power circuit including an MOV and a thermal fuse in proximity to the MOV;
• isolation means for containing the MOV and the thermal fuse, encapsulating emissions from the MOV during an overvoltage event, and facilitating heat flow between the MOV and the thermal fuse;
• and
• a plurality of utility outlets in electrical communication with the power circuit.
