Then Martzloff provides the bottom line conclusion that Bud must
ignore - otherwise profits will be at risk:

A plug-in (point of connection) protector can even contribute to
adjacent appliance. Damage also demonstrated by another Bud source.
Page 42 Figure 8: surge is earthed 8000 volts destructively through
the adjacent TV. Plug-in protector is too close to appliances and too
far from earth ground. No wonder that protector recommended by Bud
does not even claim to provide protection. A protector is only as
effective as its earth ground. Every responsible facility connects an
even better earth ground, short (ie less than 10 feet), to their
protectors AND don't use plug-in protectors promoted by Bud.
