I'm looking at NEC 2008 article 285
Is there a limit on type 3 Surge protection Devices per outlet (e.g. wall receptacle with two plug in capable)

I have been told ONLY one device per outlet.

Any reference or assistance???

Thank you:smile:
 
My '08 is in the truck, iy appears that may be the only place I will use it......:roll:

in the '05, art. 280 would be the art. of choice perhaps?

I will say I do not believe the NEC will limit you but perhaps physical size will and the obvious connection method limitation.
 
i believe that falls outside the nec.

on a side note there was a guy a few towns away that had one whole room of nothing but aquariums, he had like 16 0r 17 power strips all plugged into one another. anyway something shorted out and burnt his house down. you would have thought with all that water hed be okay:grin:
