Using a 20 amp product does not provide any extra surge protection. Our surge protection works the same. Choose a 20 amp plug-in product if you are protecting a larger piece of equipment that is drawing in excess of 15 amps. (This is not a common application)
Our 20 amp plug-in products have a 20 amp plug which will not plug into the more common 15 amp wall receptacle.
It also will not make a sound system work better. Contrary to popular belief, most sound systems (even the more expensive ones) draw under 15 amps and are perfectly fine with a 15 amp Zero Surge product.
The most common use for a 20 amp product is a rack system that could have dozens of components all drawing from one 20 amp receptacle.
Our FF models and OEM modules are sized for 20 amps and work in both 15 amp and 20 amp circuits. Since these models are hardwired, we made it easy to only have one choice.
