Overall view of the CyberPower P704URC1.

Overview

The CyberPower P704URC1 is a seven-outlet surge protector incorporating integrated USB charging ports for portable electronic devices.

The documented example was purchased new from Woot.com and documented prior to entering service. It serves as a modern reference example within the OldSurge Archive.

Unlike many historic surge protectors documented by the archive, the P704URC1 incorporates dedicated USB charging capability and a contemporary consumer-oriented design intended to support both AC-powered equipment and mobile devices.

Physical Description

The CyberPower P704URC1 utilizes a white plastic enclosure with seven grounded outlets arranged in a single row.

A recessed RESET rocker switch and separate PROTECTED and GROUNDED status indicators are located near the power-cord entry point.

The outlet nearest one end of the enclosure is transformer spaced, providing additional clearance for oversized power adapters and wall-wart style transformers.

Two pairs of USB-A charging ports are integrated directly into the enclosure, with one pair located at each end of the unit. Each charging section is marked "2.4A USB."

The enclosure measures approximately:

• Length: 12.56 in (31.9 cm)
• Width: 2.06 in (5.2 cm)
• Height:
  • Approximately 1.25 in (3.2 cm) at the outlet section
  • Approximately 1.63 in (4.1 cm) at the control section

The documented example utilizes a four-foot power cord and a right-angle attachment plug.

The attached power cord utilizes SJT construction with three 14 AWG conductors. A low-profile right-angle grounding attachment plug is fitted to the cord.

The documented example was received with a removable protective cap installed over the attachment plug blades.

The attached power cord utilizes a low-profile right-angle grounding attachment plug intended to minimize clearance requirements behind furniture and equipment.

When connected to receptacles installed in the traditional orientation, the cord exits downward from the outlet. Receptacles installed with the grounding contact upward cause the cord to exit upward instead.

Packaging

The documented example was purchased new from Woot.com.

The shipment arrived in the manufacturer's retail box without an additional outer carton or internal packing material. A shipping label was applied directly to the retail packaging.

The surge protector itself was loosely contained within the retail box without supplemental padding or protective wrapping.

Despite the minimal packaging, the documented example arrived without visible shipping damage.

The attachment plug was fitted with a removable protective cap when received. The cap protected the plug blades during shipment and retail handling.

Weight

The documented example weighs approximately 15.9 oz (451 g).

The retail package and surge protector together weigh approximately 1 lb 2.4 oz (522 g).

Mounting Provisions

The underside incorporates two keyhole-style mounting slots.

The slot spacing supports horizontal wall or furniture mounting.

A reinforced central channel is molded into the underside of the enclosure between the mounting locations.

Testing

The documented example was tested for basic electrical operation and wiring integrity prior to entering service.

The P704URC1 was connected to power using its low-profile right-angle attachment plug.

Testing with a receptacle tester confirmed correct hot, neutral, and ground wiring. No open ground, open neutral, reversed polarity, or other wiring faults were detected.

The RESET switch successfully controlled power to all outlets.

When energized, both the PROTECTED and GROUNDED indicators illuminated, indicating proper grounding and an active surge-protection circuit.

Design Notes

The P704URC1 utilizes a low-profile right-angle attachment plug intended to reduce clearance requirements behind furniture.

When connected to receptacles installed with the grounding contact in the upward position, the power cord exits upward from the receptacle rather than downward. Depending on the installation, this may reduce some of the cable-management advantages typically associated with right-angle plugs.
