Power Protection Device, Do you?
Do you use a Power Protection Device when you hookup to power (anywhere, not just in a campground)? And what type? Thanks, rocmoc n AZ/Mexico

Im using the Progressive Industries EMS-LCHW50 (50A hardwire) - its saved me TWICE now....once from a reversed polarity pedestal (the park owner didn't even know they had an issue)....several pedestals were wired wrong....and a second time from low power (under 103vac that wouldint even latch my transfer switch).
it would have saved me 3 times (but i didn't own it) and i burnt up my converter charger (at a race track) and had to run my generator more than planned that weekend.
Mine is wired IN LINE (no chance of theft) between the pedestal & my transfer switch.
IMO you want more than just a surge protector - you want something thats gonna protect you from bad wiring (open ground, too high or too low voltage and 240v).
I mounted mine in the electoral bay -
