Not sure which model, but APC (American Power Conversion) is what we use here at my work, we have around 10 differenct UPS's here, and they've never failed or reset, and all of them survived a direct lightning bolt that hit our AC unit on the roof. Hope that helps!

Thanks, I thought that was a good brand . I need to know which models would be adequate to protect my system.

I tried that, but their suggestions seem a little over the top money and solution-wise.
