Ok, I know this was covered before, but I can't find my notes on it. If I
have a powerstrip with the usual three MOV's and a capacitor or two can I
just cut everything out and be all set? These components are situated on a
circuit board inside the power rack in such a way that I really can't trace
wiring. Is it at all typical to run the ground through a capacitor so that I
wouldn't want to cut it out?
I have one central Surgex unit which provides all of the (non-MOV) protection
and filtering that I need, so I just want to convert all of my power racks
and strips to being just switched sets of outlets.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance to all!
