Is netfilter a slang for another name of the part?

Hello Dirk,

Basicly yes. The one I toulk out of a powerbar had a nice inductor,
some capacitors, automatic fuse and MOV. The netfilters you buy are
housed in a metal case to prevent EMF from entering the filter,
therefore I would recomend to buy one, but you can allways house it
yourself in a metal case. But then again you might spend some time on
it. It's all up to you ;)
