A Fridge Guard is a voltage protection device designed to protect refrigerators and other appliances from voltage fluctuations, especially low voltage, high voltage, and power surges. These fluctuations can damage sensitive components like compressors.
Key Features of a Fridge Guard:
• Automatic disconnect if voltage goes below or above safe levels.
• Delay function (usually ~3 minutes) before reconnecting power after a cutoff. This prevents compressor damage due to frequent power cycling.
• Voltage range: Typically cuts off below ~185V and above ~260V (for 220–240V systems).
• LED indicators to show status: wait time, power on, or fault.
