Yes, the Hughes Autoformer 50 Amp # HU57FR provides you protection for your RV power when connected to a shore power source. It offers up to 4,800 joules of protection from power surges.
Although it is not necessary, you can use the Watchdog Surge Protector # HU87FR as an additional layer or protection along with the Autoformer. If you go this route, you want to install the Autoformer in front of the Watchdog to allow for the full boost to be utilized and not interfere with the other functions/benefits of the Autoformer.
