Tripp Lite, a global manufacturer of power protection and connectivity solutions, has been named best of class in two categories in a recent “Best Surge Protectors and Power Strips 2020” product review on nbcnews.com.

Editors at Shop TODAY, a division of TODAY.com, selected Tripp Lite Protect It!^® surge protectors in the categories of “Best Standard Surge Protector” (TLP808B) and “Best Surge Protector with USB Ports” (TLP606DMUSB). The editors independently chose Tripp Lite surge protectors because of the outstanding quality and value the products bring to consumers.

The automatic shutoff feature on Tripp Lite surge protectors drew special notice from the editors. If the protection circuit in the surge protector is incapacitated, the unit permanently cuts power to the outlets to prevent equipment damage.

“There is a lot of research and development that goes into every Tripp Lite surge protector,” said Karenann Brow, Tripp Lite’s Director of Product Marketing for Surge, Power Strips and Display Mounts. “Now more than ever, it’s incredibly important to safeguard home electronics. Tripp Lite is proud to be recognized for the safety of our products and the great value we offer customers.”
