Microsoft does not want you to protect the Xbox One from surges

Many users of video consoles or computers at a more "professional" level tend to purchase security equipmentBy this we refer to the devices that protect our devices from overvoltages as well as drops in the electrical network, so we can take precautions before the fatal outcome occurs. However, according to the Redmond company, it does not appear to need these kinds of "product enhancements."

That is how Microsoft has released a statement making it clear that the Xbox One in none of its variants needs this type of product, in fact they strongly recommend not to use them, let's get into the information.

We are not going to doubt for a single moment the fact that this type of high quality video game console already has all the prevention systems As we can imagine, what is clear from the North American Xbox website is that you don't need "additional" protection:

The console already has inside a system to prevent this type of voltage problems. You should not connect the console to an external surge protector. If you connect the console to these types of elements, the machine could not obtain the full power necessary for its optimal operation, resulting in a highly dangerous result.

Ultimately, the company alleges that connecting the console to these types of prevention measures could be counterproductive, that is, lead to the exact opposite result. It is not a joke to talk about the voltage and the electrical power in this type of device, so it is ideal to follow the company's advice and save ourselves future problems with the operation and prolonged good condition of the console. So, we are already clear that the voltage protectors on the Xbox One do not make sense.
