    Surge protector with the Xbox Series X

    I've never had any problems with my Xbox One X while it's plugged into an external surge protector and I got my Xbox Series X on release day and it's plugged into an external surge protector as well and I've had no problems with that either.

    I would rather an external surge protector die doing its job than the surge protector dying in the console as you'd have no working console when there was a power surge without an external surge protector as the first line of defence.

    Does Xbox Series X have a built in surge protector?

    All xbox consoles have a built in surge protector,including the Series X/S & should be plugged into the wall socket directly.

    The console already includes a surge protector, you don't need to use a second one it's not recommended.

    You don't need a surge protector to use the console as has already one included, so yes you can have issues using an external one

    Power supply issue or console issue

    Do you have it plugged into a surge protector or directly into a wall? The X Box One was designed to be plugged directly into the wall, as it has a built in surge protector. The X Box One will not receive full power if plugged into a surge protector and
    may give you problems.
