Eligibility Criteria
|
- The Connected Equipment Warranty is in addition to the Lifetime Product Warranty and both are subject to the limitations set forth herein. These terms and conditions do not affect any statutory rights or obligations under Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) ("Australian Consumer Law") or the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (NZ) ("CGA"), discussed further below.
- You are required to retain the original receipt digital or physical or other proof of purchase for warranty purposes and submit the proof of purchase for any future claims under the Warranty. Failing to make a claim without an original receipt or other proof of purchase can potentially result in your claim being declined (at POWERGUARD’s sole discretion). Proof of purchase can be original receipts, photos or photocopies.
-
The POWERGUARD product must be used indoors only and in dry areas. The connected equipment must be properly installed in a correctly earthed AC outlet (directly plugged into the power source fitted for Australian and New Zealand outlets) and must NOT be ‘daisy-chained’ with extension cords or power strips. All items connected must be indoors.
- Any opening or tampering with the Product will similarly make the Warranty null and void.
- The Warranty does not apply if the Product that is submitted for replacement is discovered to meet any of the following conditions, in which case it will be returned to you, with the associated costs borne by you:
- The Product was not installed incorrectly on a properly grounded AC outlet;
- The Product was used in conjunction with other extension cords, power strips, adapters,
uninterruptible power supplies, surge protectors, other grounding wires or electrical connections;
- The Product has been tampered with or the assembly seal has been removed or damaged;
- The Product has been altered or modified by someone other than POWERGUARD;
- The Product has been subjected to abnormal physical or electrical stress, misuse, negligence or accident;
- The Product was supplied or licensed for beta, evaluation, testing or demonstration purposes, and you did not buy or license the Product; OR
- The warranty claim was made fraudulently or by misrepresentation.
- POWERGUARD will reject packages that have not been packed and dispatched as per the packing steps detailed during the claim process. Packages will either be rejected or returned to you at your cost.
- POWERGUARD reserves the right to deny a claim under the Warranty where POWERGUARD is satisfied (at its sole discretion) that there is evidence of improper use of the Product that is contrary to these eligibility criteria or to the ordinary use and purpose for which the Product is sold.

Warranty
|
Subject to the eligibility criteria set out in Section 4 above:
- The Connected Equipment Warranty provides coverage for any damage caused to equipment connected through the Product, using a properly wired AC power line with a protected ground "Connected Equipment").
- For the purpose of the Connected Equipment Warranty, the damage must result from the failure of the Product to function as described in the applicable product documentation and must be caused by lightning, power transients, momentary voltage surges or spikes (lasting less than 1ms) (an "Occurrence"). To be eligible for coverage under the Connected Equipment Warranty, claims must be submitted within three (3) days from the date of the Occurrence.
- The Lifetime Product Warranty warrants that the Product shall be free of defects in design, material or workmanship and that POWERGUARD will repair or replace any unit found to be defective in design, material or workmanship.
- For the purpose of the Lifetime Products Warranty, POWERGUARD will cover a ‘damaged or destroyed Product’ only.
- The term ‘damaged or destroyed Product’ refers to a Product that has suffered damage from a power-related incident, such as lightning, ground surge, line over (under voltage), spike or transient while being connected to and operated on any authorised utility power provided by an appropriate power provider.
- POWERGUARD will support unlimited Product replacements to valid claims (at POWERGUARD's sole discretion).
- POWERGUARD will repair or replace the ‘damaged or destroyed Product’ with the same Product.
- POWERGUARD can only ship replacement Products under the Warranty to locations in the country where the original Product was purchased.

Redemption of Warranty
|
- POWERGUARD will support the Warranty if the claim form has been completed in full and the claim is made within three (3) days from the date of the product failure.
- You must initiate and follow the steps to complete your claim via on the POWERGUARD website located at powerguard.com.au via the designated ‘Contact us’ section.
- You can claim for the POWERGUARD Connected Equipment Warranty and Lifetime Product Warranty Program.
- POWERGUARD will pay to repair or replace the damaged Connected Equipment and Product, an amount equal to the fair market value of the Connected Equipment (at the time of the damage occurring), or the original purchase price of the Connected Equipment up to the maximum value per direct-connected and nominated item of equipment set out in Section 3, whichever is lesser.
- The Connected Equipment can be new or old, but it must be free from defect when connected to a POWERGUARD Product. The fair market value of the Connected Equipment shall be the current retail market depreciated value of equipment of the same or similar model or specification as reasonably determined by POWERGUARD at the same time it agrees to settle the claim.
- POWERGUARD reserves the right to view the damaged Product, the damaged Connected Equipment and the site where the damage occurred. All freight costs for shipping the Product and damaged Connected Equipment to and from POWERGUARD shall be borne by you.
- If it is impractical to ship the Product and damaged Connected Equipment to POWERGUARD, POWERGUARD may appoint, in its sole discretion, an authorised repairer or electrical test lab (claims assessor) to estimate the cost to repair the Connected Equipment. The cost, if any, of shipping to this facility shall be borne solely by you.
- All damaged Connected Equipment must remain available for inspection until the claim is finalised. Whenever claims are settled, POWERGUARD reserves the right to be subrogated under any existing insurance policies you may have.
- The Warranty excludes damage to software or software applications, loss of data and consequential loss of any type other than damage to or loss of hardware.
- The protective device must show physical signs of power-related damage in keeping with let-through voltage damage to the Connected Equipment and must test as having been stressed performing outside its design specifications.
