Does this Surge Protector have a Built in Circuit Breaker?

I really don't know. I am using it more as a multi plug extention cord. There are two lights on it, one says "Grounded" & the other says "Protected". I don't see a place to replace a circuit if it is blown but.... I threw the box away so I dont have any more info for you. I love it personally.

Whatever it had did not work properly as my equipment was destroyed after a surge. Belkin tested it and said it was fine. If it was fine, why was my equipment damaged? I lost thousands. Word from Belkin, "Claim Denied"! (go away pesky customer). Never again.

Hi Christine.This Belkin Pivot-Plug Surge Protector model BP112230 doesn't have a built-in / resettable circuit breaker. The following models have built-in resettable circuit breaker: Belkin F7C007 Conserve Smart AV and Belkin F7C01008q Conserve Switch.Thanks.Belkin Supporthttp://www.belkin.com/us/support

All I know is when my circuit breaker tripped and turned off the electricity for the plug in which the Belkin Pivot Plug was in, it will not work any more.

That answer isn't addressed in their description on the box. Sorry, I can't tell you one way or the other. I don't see a reset button on my unit either.

Yes, the two I ordered were the updated models....HOWEVER, one of mine blew when I plugged in my low volt table lamp, and smoke rolled out of the wall unit. The unit takes the place of your wall plate on the outlet and screws into existing outlet. They are surge protected since when the one side outlet blew, it did not trip the breaker on this circuit. But I did have quite a wall burn above the outlet to sand, clean and re paint the wall. The 2nd one is working fine....and I put a smoke alarm on the ceiling just above the outlet in case this one fails when I gone or asleep. these are not ul listed.

It comes with grounded cord and since it has surge protection might assume the ground connection is involved that protection but I am not electrical expert.

My understanding is that it's only an outlet strip, not a surge suppressor. The 15 amp overcurrent protector (circuit breaker) does not provide transient suppression.

There is a UL Listed sticker on the bottom of the surge protector. Here's a link to a photo:http://aehass.zenfolio.com/p218402084/h370c0f13#h370c0f13

Not unless you cut a larger hole. (That's what I did). But Safety 1st does make one for surge protectors.

Yes. But if the green light is still on after several nearby lightning strikes as in my case, it will continue to protect. If the green light goes out, you will need to replace the unit; being glad that it saved you from possibly thousands of dollars in damage! This is the case for ALL surge protector devices.

The SYCOM whole house surge protector can do both. I installed one on my circuit breaker box will little trouble. I haven't yet had a lightning strike or surge, so I haven't had the opportunity to see it work.

No it does not. Stock #56575 has a 15 amp circuit breaker built in and is resettable. That's about the only step up.

Also looking for this. Starting to wonder if it's not a true surge protector, and just has a simple fuse like most power strips.

IT Does but its not meant to be user serviable... its a 250 amp fuse. I would use a 200 amp external fuse or circuit breaker as system protection. that will pass 2 KW even at 10 volts DC so the fuse should blow above that level of power.

Yes the one I received had the surge protector. Only issue I had with it is I realized its an older model fence. About 3 yes old.

No, it does not. You would have to purchase a surge protected outlet to install instead of the standard outlet provided. The picture of the product is deceiving.

Yes. This checks the quality of the power coming in to the coach before it hits the panel of circuit breakers. It is a surge protector but it also tells you if the power on the pedestal has correct polarity and the amperage and voltage of each line. It protects the panel as well.

You are reading the description wrong. It states it circuit breaker protected, not surge protected. Circuit protected is basically if it is wattage overloaded the circuit breaker pop and you will have to reset it once the overload is removed. This unit is not a surge protector. Depending on your level of surge protection needed and you want an inexpensive surge protector you should look at the GE 14707 on Amazon. It sells for $9.99 Prime. It has 104 joules of surge protection.

I didn't have one. Sounds more like a power strip to me. I had the same equipment, each on its own adapter, outlet. I didn't have surge protection, it an was fine but could have been luck of the draw. If you want added peace of mind, then get it.

This is a Power strip, not Surge protector, It has a power switch with a built in light on the switch.
