This article covers フィリップス オールインワン サージタップ 4接地&4極コンセント 1140ジュール アダプター間隔設計 ETL認証 ホワイト.
Overview
The Philips SPP3993W/37 is an all-in-one surge tap designed to expand a single wall outlet into eight usable AC sockets. It combines four grounded three-prong outlets with four polarized two-prong outlets, offering flexibility for both modern electronics and older appliances. With a surge protection rating of 1,140 joules, it guards connected devices against voltage spikes caused by lightning or grid fluctuations. A key differentiator is the adapter-spacing design — the outlets are arranged with extra clearance so bulky power bricks and wall warts don't block neighboring ports. The white-and-gray finish keeps the unit looking clean in any room, making it a practical addition to a home office, living room, or dorm setup.
Connectivity & Compatibility
This surge tap plugs directly into a standard NEMA 5-15R grounded wall receptacle and accepts 125VAC at up to 15A (1875W total). In Japan, it works with 100V household circuits without any adapter. The four grounded outlets are ideal for PCs, monitors, printers, and other three-prong devices. The four polarized two-prong outlets handle phone chargers, lamps, and small appliances. An integrated circuit breaker with a reset switch provides overload protection. The unit is ETL certified, meeting North American safety standards. Note that in 100V regions the maximum power draw is derated accordingly — still sufficient for most desktop bundles but not intended for high-wattage appliances like space heaters.
Product Info
Released in late 2025, the SPP3993W/37 is widely available through Japan and other online retailers. Pricing typically falls around ¥1,900–¥2,500, positioning it as a budget-friendly option in the 8-outlet surge protector segment. The manufacturer provides a standard one-year warranty. Included in the box: the surge tap unit and a quick-start guide. Market positioning is entry-to-mid-tier. It competes with basic power strips by adding real surge protection and thoughtful outlet spacing, all at a price that undercuts many 6-outlet models. The Philips brand and ETL certification add credibility.
Best Use Cases
Home office workers with multiple peripherals: Connect a desktop PC, monitor, printer, and phone charger through one tap. The wide outlet spacing prevents adapter conflicts, so even chunky laptop bricks fit without blocking adjacent outlets. Not ideal if you need USB-C fast charging — this unit has no USB ports. Console gamers and AV enthusiasts in the living room: Safely power a PS5, Nintendo Switch, TV, and soundbar from one wall outlet. The 1,140J surge rating provides basic protection against lightning-induced surges. If you also need coax or Ethernet surge protection, look for a more specialized AV surge protector. * Budget-conscious students or renters: Get reliable surge protection without breaking the bank. The compact form factor and neutral colors blend into any room. Avoid plugging high-draw appliances (microwaves, hair dryers) into this unit — it's designed for electronics, not heavy loads.
