Q: we were recently inspected by the fire marshall, and we were told that we couldn't use this power strip because it is not resettable. other power strips are marked with reset/off but i do not see that marking on this particular product. I see the UL listing, but no reset info. Do we have to abandon the 50 of these that we purchased several years ago? Thanks! Asked on 2/13/2013 by Carl from IT professional Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer A: You are correct, the product does not reset or have an on/off switch. You need to check the specific code that the fire marshal referenced. It makes a difference if you are in a government, hospital, commercial or private home type setting. Codes can vary by location or agency. The UL product certification is sufficient for private home use. Answered on 2/13/2013 by Community Answer from None

Q: I need a plug that is not a "right angle" plug because of the type of conference room table we have. If this has a right angle plug please let me know what options I have.

It fits into the wall perfectly, and two pronged cords work fine, but anything with the lower 3rd prong cannot fit into the strip. I can see something gold blocking the prong's ability to go in.

Q: what is a 1 ac block outlet mean Asked on 8/25/2009 by Anonymous Know the answer? Answer this question 2 answers A: It means you can plug in one item with an oversized plug, like the chargers that have a "block" on the end. Hope that helps! Some surge protectors are designed with multiple block outlets, so what you need depends on what will be plugged in.
