How to install Wiremold Sentrex 6-Outlet Surge Suppressor/Protector

• Choose a dry, sturdy location near a grounded wall outlet. Avoid installing in damp areas, on unstable surfaces, or where it could be exposed to heat or moisture.
• Uncoil the 15-foot cord and route it along walls or behind furniture to minimize visible wiring and reduce tripping hazards. Do not place the cord under rugs or furniture where it could overheat or become damaged.
• Plug the surge suppressor into a grounded wall outlet. Ensure the outlet’s rating matches the surge protector’s 15A specification for safe operation.

• Turn on the surge protector using the illuminated switch. Confirm the indicator shows the unit is energized and actively protecting connected devices.
