Recommended model: Belkin Commercial Receptacle
 
Founded in 1983, Belkin is a leading global manufacturer of electronic peripherals known for reliability and ease of use. According to CNN's Business Usual Report 2001, more than 60% of computer users in the United States own at least one Belkin product.
 
Belkin has the industry's best surge protection technology, and its surge protection products have a 54% market share in the United States. Voltage surges caused by abnormal wiring, commonly known as electrical energy surges, have a particularly deserving impact on delicate electronic equipment, as surges can damage the internal electronic components of the equipment, causing malfunction or reducing service life. In addition to factors such as lightning strikes and grid switches, switching high-power appliances can also cause sudden voltage changes and surges.
 
Compared with the United States, the concept of anti-surge is accepted late, and the anti-surge plug is not popular in the market. After entering the information age, microelectronic equipment has penetrated into all fields of production and life, according to statistics, more than 70% of the failure of electronic products is caused by a variety of surge shocks. If the anti-surge system in the residential area is not perfect, and there are many high-end electronic devices in the home, it is recommended to use an anti-surge socket for protection.
 
Belkin's national standard anti-surge plug bar has a built-in varistor, which can absorb 900 joules of electrical energy, effectively blocking surge damage and protecting the safety of electrical equipment. In addition to excellent surge protection, Belkin strips offer superior safety and a service life that far exceeds the average power strip. The shell is made of PC engineering plastic, which is highly flame retardant and impact resistant. The internal circuit design is reasonable, the solder joints are full, and the copper sheet is thick. In terms of after-sales service, in addition to warranty service, Belkin also has a connected equipment guarantee, in the case of the correct use of the charger or plug, if the electronic equipment is damaged due to charging, Belkin will provide a product guarantee of up to 20,000 yuan, which is very rare in the industry.
 
Belkin national standard socket products have always been relatively simple, with only a few models. The new national standard for sockets has been implemented since 2017, and is currently in the transition stage of alternating between the old and new standards. Belkin currently only has two new national standard commercial plug bars on sale, with additional USB charging ports, but compared with the old watchman, there is less overload protection and network cable anti-surge function, its 4-digit model is priced at 198 yuan, and the 6-digit model is priced at 238 yuan, which is a higher price.
