millencolinf2f,

I think the Smartbridge you are using has surge protection, but it doesn't have the lightening protection based on code. This varies from place to place. Overseas, I am unsure of the requirements. There are products from Smartbridge that have internal lightning protection as well. Grounding the chassis to the building would be a requirement .

* Note: The surge protection circuit of powerShot does not eliminate the need of Lightening Protection and Grounding that conforms to the Standards of the National Electric Code (NEC) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

Please see the following link to confirm the Smartbridge power requirements.

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
