Installation

Mount Your Surge Suppressor (Optional Installation. Available on Select Models Only):

If desired, mount your surge suppressor on a wall or other sturdy, vertical surface. However, you
must mount the surge suppressor prior to connecting your equipment. Place a sheet of paper
over the surge suppressor’s mounting holes and mark their centers with a push pin. Next, place
this template over the desired area and mark with the push pins. Install screws (user supplied)
into the marks until ¼ in. (0.6 cm) of the screw heads are exposed. Mount the surge suppressor
over the screw heads and slide into place.

Connect Your Surge Suppressor to the AC Power Line: Plug the surge suppressor’s power
cord into a standard, 3-wire grounded 120V AC outlet.

Turn Your Surge Suppressor ON: Press the surge suppressor’s power switch to “ON” or
“RESET” (depending on model). Select models feature an illuminated switch.

Check Your Surge Suppressor’s Diagnostic Indicator Lights (Available on Select Models
Only): If your surge suppressor features diagnostic LEDs, check them prior to connecting your

equipment. They will indicate various operating conditions when the surge suppressor is
plugged into a live 120V AC outlet and the surge suppressor’s power switch is on.

“PROTECTED” LED: Indicates the surge suppression components are intact and
providing complete protection against surges. If this LED does not illuminate, some of
the surge suppression components are not functioning, and the unit should be replaced.
Call Tripp Lite Customer Support at [phone].

“GROUNDED” LED: Indicates wall outlet is grounded and surge protection can
properly function. If this light DOES NOT illuminate and power is present, consult a
qualified electrician to examine your outlet’s wiring.

“LINE OK” LED (select models): Indicates 120V AC power is present with no wiring
faults detected.

Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s AC Outlets: Plug your equipment’s
power cords (including 2-wire devices) into the surge suppressor’s AC outlets. Select models
feature integrated safety covers which cover the outlets when not in use. Other models feature special
widely-spaced outlets to accommodate transformers without covering other outlets. DO NOT
plug in extension cords. DO NOT OVERLOAD the surge suppressor’s outlets. The surge
suppressor 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 suppressor exceeds
15 amps, the circuit breaker* will trip and the outlets will stop providing power. If the circuit
breaker trips, reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Depress the circuit breaker to reset.

* Circuit breakers are integrated into the power switch on select models and offered as a separate feature on other models.

Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Phone Jacks (Optional Installation.
Available on Select Models Only): Connect a phone cable from the wall jack directly to the

surge suppressor’s RJ-style phone jack labeled “IN.” Connect a phone cable from the surge
suppressor’s RJ-style phone jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected. Select
models feature two “OUT” jacks; either one or both of the jacks may be used, but protection is
for a device or devices sharing a single line only. All models with phone line surge protection,
except the TLP810NET, protect devices on a single line only. TLP810NET models feature a
single set of RJ-style phone jacks which protect devices on two lines. The surge suppressor must
always be the first item connected in line from the wall jack. The surge suppressor must be
plugged into a 3-wire, grounded AC outlet for phone line surge protection to work.

Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Network Jacks* (Optional
Installation. Available on Select Models Only): Connect a data cord from the wall jack or

cable/DSL modem directly to the surge suppressor’s network jack labeled “IN.” Connect a data

* 10/100 BaseT/TX, Token Ring. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.

cord from the surge suppressor’s network jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be
protected (typically a computer’s network interface card). The surge suppressor must always
be the first item connected in line from the Ethernet source (typically a wall jack). The surge
suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire grounded AC outlet for network line surge protection
to work.

Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Coaxial Jacks (Optional Installation.
Available on Select Models Only): Connect a coaxial cable from the wall jack directly to the

surge suppressor’s “F” style coaxial jack labeled “IN.” Connect a coaxial cable from the surge
suppressor’s “F” style coaxial jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected. Select
models include a second set of coaxial jacks for simultaneous connection and protection of
devices on two separate lines (cable, antenna or satellite). The surge suppressor must always
be the first item connected in line from the coaxial wall jack. The surge suppressor must be
plugged into a 3-wire grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to work.
