What is the True Clamping Voltage?
on May 25, 2025
Posted by: PeteD
One of the most important surge protection parameters is the "voltage protection rating (VPR)" or "clamping voltage". On Belkin's web site for this product (BE108000-08-CM), it states that the clamping voltage is 330V, but on the back of the product it says" L-N 400V, L-G 500V, N-G 500V". So, Belkin, please tell me what is the VPR or clamping voltage of this product? I need to protect some very sensitive electronic equipment. I thought I was getting 330V, which is the recommended VPR for electronics and I need assurance that my equipment will be protected. Thank you.

Simple Insurance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With so much invested in equipment and rural frequent power outages, this is just the type of "insurance" I need.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This outlet extender worked out great for my home office! It is very sturdy and quality is top! It works as a surcharge protector which is what I was looking for since I've plugged in my wprk equipment and I don't want to risk it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

spacious outlet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an awesome product that I got for my work station at home. It has plenty of space for the outlets for my computer, monitor, chargers, etc. I wish it had plugs for just USB so i can plug it other appliances. One problem I have with it is that my new laptop charger stops charging with the outlet. I have to switch it to a different plug for it to work.

Perfect for home office

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This plug strip is everything I need to to be without a bunch of stuff I don't need. It has plenty of outlets and it has good spacing between some of the outlets for larger boxy plug in power supplies. This surge protector doesn't have all the extra stuff like coax in/ out and ports for RJ35 data cables. I'm on wifi and don't need all that stuff wasting space. It's not 1998, so I'm glad Belkin didn't include those. The plug on the 8 foot cord is a 90 degree type and the cord comes out at a 45 degree angle, so it doesn't block the second socket when plugged into a typical duplex wall outlet. I appreciate the 8 foot cord the most I think. I've set up my home office in our (finished) basement hallway and the cubby under/ behind the stairs. Since this is the basement the outlet count and locations aren't ideal. The only outlet even close to my desk is on the side wall next to the desk rather than behind my desk where I needed it, so having the 8 foot cord is what makes this location possible at all.
My only real criticism of this power strip is that when wall mounted, the power cord enters the strip itself on the bottom which seems ideal- but the on/off switch is also on the bottom. It would be better to have the on/ off switch up top so when mounted, the cords don't drape down over the switch. The switch won't get bumped by the cords or a foot moving under the desk but it's just a little harder to turn on/ off that it would be if it were on top.

Good surge protection
on August 30, 2022

from Topeka, KS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Belkin Commercial Series Surge Protector when I started working from home to protect my company computer. One of the things I liked most was the spacing of the plugs. It has space to plug in the bulkier plugins without blocking a slot. As far as the surge protection worked like a champ. After a storm rolled through I noticed that the unit was tripped. After resetting the unit all the devices powered on without incident.

Great brand

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This brand of electronics is very good! I like the outlet a lot! It has a bunch of plug ins and is pretty heavy duty! Need to have a three prong outlet which isnt uncommon with power strips. It is kind of wide.
I would recommend this to a friend!
