surge protector
Mr. Questionair asked:


I recently found out that i have fault wiring in my house by using the power surge protector i just bough. It showed the red light indicating for fault wiring. As right now all the electric in my house still work fine and it has been for 5 years now… so is it okay to continue using it the way they are? Will the power surge protector still protect surge as it suppose to even if it detech fault wiring? Can anyone tell me what’s the possible outcome with fault wiring?

♡LiL♥Kitten♡ asked:


I first noticed something wrong when I powered up the PC and the APC logo popped up saying that my battery backup wasn’t hooked up. Weird because it is. Now a few days later, I have a red light on at the bottom of my batter backup near where the phone lines plug in. What have I done wrong? Or is the battery no good? Any suggestions? Has anyone had a similar problem? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks :)
