Don, is your custom-made surge protector a spike protector only?
With autoformer like Sola (or any other similar autoformer) you probably don't want a device like Hughes EMS upstream of Sola. Hughes EMS shuts down when input drops below 105V or shoots higher than 135V. Sola is keeping 110-120V output with input ranging from 95 to 135V (and somewhat corrects beyond this range), so there is no need to interrupt. An EMS with cut-off points at 80V and 150V would make sense in this case, IMO.
