My SE is plugged into a cheap "suppressor" also. We have had power glitches
and occasional lightning which has done nasty (but not permanent) things to
the cable TV converter (which is of course separate from the electric power
delivery system). Anyway, when powered on, the SE has survived without
bombs or peculiarities or any visible effects glitches which have reset my
microwave oven (easy to do) and clock radio (a little harder). I think it
is probably pretty insensitive to minor transients.
