What is the difference between a surge protector and an extension cord?
Hello. Outwardly extension cords and surge protectors are similar, the difference is in the button on the surge protector. What is the difference? Does the surge protector perform any “useful” functions for wiring and sockets? Or is there no difference what to use with an extension cord or surge protector? Thank.
Hello! The difference between the line filter and the extension cord is that the filter can protect the equipment connected to it from interference in the network, thereby prolonging the life of electrical appliances.
