Surge Guard Failure

After a 3 month trip up north, we were back in a Fla. campground to unpack the trailer and avoid the heat. The power went out the next morning and I could not get it to come back. The rig is a 2006 and I purchased a 50 amp Surge Guard (model 34750) at the same time.

When my RV repairman looked at my problem his opinion is that the Surge Guard failed which, in turn, caused the 110 side of my transfer station to fry as well. At least we didn't have a fire. A new transfer station has been installed.

Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Before we go north next spring, I plan to purchase a replacement Surge Guard.

"I purchased......etc" = wrong choice. PI Industries.

"When my repairman looked.......etc" = the surge guard didn't "cause" your transfer station to "fry" - unless it didn't do it's job.

"Has anyone else.....etc." = Nope - but can't speak for others.

"Before we go North next spring I plan to purchase a replacement Surge Guard" = throwing money away (twice)..:(

(It is what it is. If you had purchased the PI originally - you wouldn't be purchasing another inferior product - and, why would you do that??)..:h
