How do surge protectors work?

Protecting Yourself

A surge protector is an efficient way in which to protect your computer and computer accessories from sudden surges in electricity. These surges can send a bolt of electricity throughout your computer resulting in damage to essential parts such as the hard drive or motherboard.

When choosing a good surge protector, look for one that is designed especially for computers with indicators to tell you it is working properly.
