GEARGO RV Surge Protector 30 Amp with 12000J 🔌
Description:
This 30 amp RV surge protector from GEARGO helps protect camper electrical systems from sudden power spikes and unsafe shore power. With a built-in circuit analyzer and an LED display, it lets you check line voltage and wiring status before connecting appliances, giving clearer feedback on whether a pedestal is safe to use.
Key Points
The unit provides surge protection rated at 12000 joules, designed to absorb large voltage spikes quickly according to the manufacturer. Its smart display shows real-time voltage and wiring codes so you can detect common wiring faults and confirm when the green protection lights indicate a safe connection range between 103 and 132 volts. The device also includes an automatic shutoff that cuts power if the input drops below 103 volts or rises above 132 volts, and it will reset once voltage returns to the acceptable window.
Technical Specifications
- Name: GEARGO RV Surge Protectors 30 Amp
- Surge energy rating: 12000 Joules
- Rated current: 30 Amp
- Voltage safe range: 103-132 V
- Waterproof rating: IP68
Advantages
The integrated circuit analyzer helps reduce guesswork at campsites by reporting wiring faults and live voltage values. The auto shutoff and automatic reset features add an extra layer of protection for sensitive electronics and appliances, and the temperature monitoring alerts you if internal temperatures climb above 110°C, which can help prevent circuit burnout. The ergonomic handle and large waterproof cover also simplify hooking up in inclement weather and protect connections from rain, dust, and sand.
Usage Recommendations
Connect the surge protector to the pedestal and check the LED display before plugging into your RV. When the display reads between 103 and 132 volts and the green protection lights are on, the pedestal wiring and voltage are indicated as acceptable according to the device. If the unit indicates a wiring fault or shuts off for out-of-range voltage, wait for a stabilized supply or seek an alternative pedestal. Consider that this device monitors and reacts to voltage and temperature conditions but does not replace regular electrical inspections at campgrounds.
