Everyone talks about servers and routers and racks but I dont see many posts about how you protect your electronics against power outages, power surges or brown outs

I'm using :

Panamax M5300-PM

APC J25B Line Conditioner with 3 hours back up battery for redundancy ( main server /router/ modem connects to this)

APC H15 x 2 Power conditioner

I lost a couple of motherboards because of sudden power surges before deciding to invest into some protection.

In the wall I have a TP-Link Kasa KP115 so I can monitor the power draw of the rack. Then power goes into an APC SUA1500RMI2U which feeds a vertical PDU. My servers and router connect to the UPS using NUT so they can monitor the battery state and shut down when required.
