Should my TV be plugged into a TV power protector?

Date:2025-01-07   Click:382  

TV is a common household appliance in life. Every household will install a TV. Therefore, some people have such a question. Is it necessary to install an automatic voltage protector on the TV at home? Yixing manufacturers will tell you that whether the TV needs to be inserted into a voltage protector depends mainly on the specific use environment and needs.

Grid quality: If the quality of the power grid in your area is poor, there are problems such as voltage instability or grid interference, then installing a protector can provide additional protection to prevent these problems from causing damage to the TV equipment.

Investment protection: 85-inch TVs are usually high-value TV equipment. If you want to maximize the protection of your investment and ensure the long life and reliability of the TV, installing a protector may be a wise choice.

Risk assessment: Assess the environmental factors and risk conditions in your area. If you live in an area with frequent lightning, a place with large power fluctuations, or other electronic devices nearby that may cause electromagnetic interference, installing a protector can reduce the risk of damage to the TV equipment.

Benefits of inserting a TV power protector


Anti-surge protection
Surge refers to the phenomenon of a sudden increase in voltage, which may be caused by a variety of reasons, such as thunder and lightning weather. When lightning strikes the nearby power grid or the power system is switched, a momentary high voltage is generated. Without a power protector, these surges may directly impact the electronic components inside the TV. For example, there are many sensitive components such as capacitors, resistors, and chips on the power board of the TV. Surges may cause these components to break down, thereby damaging the TV. The power protector can absorb or shunt these excess voltages, maintaining the voltage within the normal operating range of the TV, and greatly reducing the risk of damage to the TV due to surges.

Extend the life of the TV
By preventing surges and filtering power noise, the internal components of the TV can operate in a relatively stable power environment. Reducing the possibility of component damage due to voltage surges and interference can naturally extend the life of the TV.

The design life of a general TV may be around 7-10 years. Using a power protector can better maintain the performance of the TV and enable it to work stably throughout its service life.

Situations where it may not be necessary to insert a power protector

(1) Low surge risk environment

If your area rarely experiences lightning weather and the power supply is very stable, the probability of surges is low. For example, in some areas in the city center where power facilities are well maintained, the power grid itself already has certain surge protection measures.

(2) The TV itself has sufficient protection mechanisms

Some high-end TVs have built-in relatively complete power protection circuits during design. These circuits can prevent damage to the TV from surges and power noise to a certain extent. However, even if the TV itself has a protection mechanism, an external power protector can still provide additional protection.


In general, plugging in a TV power protector is a better practice, which can provide a safer and more stable power environment for the TV, effectively protect the TV, and extend its service life. However, if you think the risk of surges in your environment is extremely low and the TV itself has sufficient protection, you can choose not to use it.
