can accommodate a total equipment load of up to 15 amps (whether plugged into a single outlet or
spread out over multiple outlets). If the load on the surge protector exceeds 15 amps, the internal
circuit breaker will trip and the outlets will stop providing power. If the circuit breaker trips, reduce
the load by unplugging some devices. Reset by cycling the power button from On to Off and then On
again. Repeat the process of unplugging a device to reduce the overall load until the unit remains On
delivering power to all connected devices.
When plugged in, if the
ground
indicator LED does not light, move the power unit to a different
grounded 3-prong AC outlet. If this symptom continues, your outlet may not be properly grounded
and need to be repaired by a professional electrician.
If the
protected
LED does not light, the power unit’s AC line is no longer protected from surges and
the power unit must be replaced. If Austere Power continues to be used with the protected LED in
the Off state any connected equipment will not be protected from future surges and spikes.
