MIP 3000/01 cites the specific makes/models of surge suppressors authorized for shipboard use. They are: Brooks Power Systems Model Z6(62P) NSN 6150-01-362-7192 HFS Inc Surge Suppressors NSN 6150-01-362-7192 DSK Inc. Model 5000 (No NSN, but call 800-367-4216 to order) EFI Electronics Corporation Model MPS 453 EFI-120A (No NSN, but call 800-877-1174 to order) Another major problem we see is unauthorized equipment plugged into the surge suppressors. Surge suppressors are for computer equipment ONLY and are not to be used as extension cords for personnel gear, pencil sharpeners, VCR’s etc. Refs: (a) NSTM 300 pg.2-21 para. 300-2.7.3.
