Thanks for the info, Abe.
I don't know why I said they were wired in series earlier, of course they are in parallel. I took Theory many years ago; it must be the meds I'm on.

The Line is fed to first duplex receptacle and then from the first wired to the second using the hot and neutral fed through terminals. From the second to the third and so on.

Actually, jea, what I meant was each receptacle would have it's own ground, such as in star-grounding. Also, each receptacle would have an isolated filter and not share filtering in the power strip.
I made a mistake in my post stating that the hot would be wired to each outlet in series.

lowrider75-
for over decade I have been using a Richard Gray Power Company(RGPC) Pro400.
I do not live in the grid (major U.S. city) so my power is relatively clean in comparison. These are outstanding products new or used. Excellent customer service by Dick and his crew at RGPC.
Very interesting, fantja.
I looked up reviews of the Richard Grey products. The RGPC 400 Pro seems like a similar design to the Brick Wall in that they both use an inductor and capacitors to filter incoming AC current. OTOH, the RGPC SubStation is an isolation unit which costs as much as a PS Audio Conditioner.The RGPC 400 Pro, however, uses "Balanced AC Surge Protection." Does anybody know what this terminology means?
They do not use the term "Balanced Power," of which I am familiar with.

the way it was explained to me;
the RGPC products uses/works in parallel w/ one's AC source. In my case, the local power company's transformer (for my particular street) sits on my property. I am very fortunate to live "at the source".
Yes, you could create your own "source" using the RGPC Substation. Watch eBay and buy it used/demo and save big bucks.
