Power Daisy Chain [Archive]

I'm taking the plunge and buying some Furman PlugLocks which has prompted a question about power.

Currently I have my power strip daisy chained together. I have an APC uninterrupted and a PL Plus conditioner, both with multiple outlets. Should have set up my power strips so that they are all discretely connected to the PL Plus?

Thanks,

Set up with a hub and spoke, each secondary power strip has its own plug on the master power strip. It makes hunting for ground issues or bad power strips easier.

I fully agree with dc.

Thanks Guys,

I've started working on it and I found a path.

I'm plugging all the essential computer stuff into the UPS and I've divided the other items up on the PL-Plus. This allows me to save my files if the power goes out and like you said, keeps things separated in the event of ground hums etc.
