Make sure you only plug your computer and peripherals into a spike strip. Make sure your spike strip is rated high enough to handle what you're plugging into it. specs for the strip are usually on the package. Some spike strips even carry a binding guarantee to protect your PC from damage. They cost a bit more but the protection is well worth it.

Where is the voltage regulator in a 2000 dodge Dakota?

The voltage regulator is NOT built in the alternator, it is part of the ECM, that is the Engine Control Module. The module (computer) monitors the charging system and signals the alternator how much voltage to send it to keep the system working properly. the voltage regulator is built in to the alternator

What device protects system against lightning strikes but does not protect against Sags and brownouts?

It's true that a surge protector would protect against surges like those caused by lightning strikes but would do nothing to help with sags and brownouts. To address both high voltage (surges) and low voltage (brownouts) you would need an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A UPS provides clean current by powering your computer from the battery while simultaneously charging the battery from the electrical supply.

Your immune system. Your immune system has a certain amount of "buffer" against diseases, but your body also builds anti-bodies against diseases after it has come into contact with a virus, etc the first time, so that it can fight it if you ever get it again.


What are the importance of using an AVR when plugging your computer into power source?

An automatic voltage regulators, by regulating the level of voltage in an alternating current (AC) system to a narrower range of output, protects parts of the system that might be damaged by surges or drops in power. It is designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage level. It regulates the sudden flow of electric current from AC supply to the PC. It may use an electromechanical mechanism, or passive or active electronic.
