	~~The grounding pin is implemented as a direct pass-through conductor extending from the wall plug to the receptacle ground contact.~~

These findings are consistent with the device markings, which specify a VPR of 700 V (L-N), and suggest a line-to-neutral-only surge-suppression design.

			The observed design differs from many higher-end surge suppressors that employ multiple MOVs and provide separate line-to-ground and neutral-to-ground protection paths. The LA-64 instead appears to rely on a single line-to-neutral protection stage consistent with its low cost, compact size, and modest 245-joule energy rating.
