Can anyone here comment on whether the Hughes Autoformer protects against surges and spikes? While they are expensive, I was fortunate to get a used one off Craigslist for only $150. I'm sort of under the impression that the transformer serves to isolate the incoming power from the outgoing power.
The newest versions offer limited surge protection, IIRC older models did not. Has nothing to do with the transformer. If I were to invest in a Hughes Autoformer I'd also place a surge protector (not an EMS) before it.
