Is it ever ok to go from 3 prong Strip to 2 adapter?
#9
I am also curious, will a Surge Protector work properly if the ground plug is taken away using the means of an adapter?

My friend had a power outage at his apartment one day as evidenced by screwed up clocks when he got home. His computer was plugged into a surge protector but wouldn't boot. Troubleshooting lead to dead powersupply which we changed out, then the computer booted again fine. I found that his Surge Protector was plugged into a wall with an adapter eliminating the ground pin...
