I've bought four of these devices and they have proved to be as capable as I hoped they'd be.
The APC P1Uk Surge protectors react extremely quickly to mains surges plus, as a very welcome bonus, my "network over the mains" homeplugs still worked with no problems.
They may be more expensive than some of the alternatives I could have bought, but I believe it was money very well spent.

Have been using the APC P1Uk Surge protector for 3 years now without any fault. It's build quality is so good have ended up buying a futher 2 for my colleauges at work. It's highly portable and light to handle. I can swear by it (almost), given that i live in a area with constant power fluctuations.

Quite simply, this is a surge protector and so, you just plug it into the wall socket, then plug your electrical device into it. It should then protect against Lightning, spikes, and surges. However I don't like taking chances with my electrical devices, so I wanted a quality protector.
In this instance, I needed to protect a single electrical device, so I wanted to find a protector that does just that. As a satisfied customer of other APC products, finding this particular single socket surge protector was a more than welcome find.
Purchasing this product was a great decision as the build quality is great, in that it doesn't feel cheap, flimsy, or prone to breaking at all. The pins are sturdy for plugging into the wall socket, and plugging a plug into the protector itself is met with ease too. The socket has shuttered pins for safety and to prevent any dust or debris entering it when not in use.
There's a small, green LED indicator at the top of the protector that gives a subtle indication that the surge protection is working as it should be. If this light doesn't light up, then it means the protection is faulty, or there has actually been a surge which has damaged the protection (you then should NOT use the protector and return it under the "Lifetime Product Warranty" if this is the case).
What really made me confident with using this particular surge protector is the "Lifetime Connected Equipment Protection". This means that if the equipment I've connected to the surge protector gets damaged due to a power surge, then I'm eligible for a claim to replace the protector itself, and to have either the connected equipment repaired, or replaced up to a value of £35,000 (Check the T&C's in the included leaflet).
I can't comment at this stage on how effective the protection is as I've not yet experienced a power surge, however as I previously mentioned, I don't like taking chances, and so I'm pretty sure this surge protector will do its job perfectly well.
Overall, I'm pleased with this purchase and it only adds to my positive impression of APC products once again.
