Can Active Controls ActiveStart Plug-In Soft Start for RVs # AS44FR be Used with Surge Protector

Question:

Can you use this in-line with a surge protector? If so does it go surge protector - soft start - camper or soft start - surge protector- camper?

Hey Alan, yes you can use the Active Controls ActiveStart Plug-In Soft Start for RVs # AS44FR with a surge protector. You would want it to go surge protector, soft start, and then to your camper so that the soft start also has surge protection basically.

Hey Alan, did you get a chance to set up the soft start with your surge protector and camper? I'd love to know how it worked out for you, as it could help others looking to do the same setup.
