Arcade machines require stable and clean power to function optimally, making power conditioning essential. The most common types of power conditioning solutions include:

1. Surge Protectors – These devices shield arcade machines from sudden voltage spikes caused by lightning or power grid fluctuations, preventing damage to sensitive components.

2. Voltage Regulators – They maintain a consistent voltage level, ensuring the machine operates smoothly even during power fluctuations.

3. Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) – A UPS provides backup power during outages, allowing safe shutdowns and preventing data loss in modern arcade systems.

4. EMI/RFI Filters – These filters reduce electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, which can disrupt gameplay or damage circuitry.

5. Isolation Transformers – Often used in older arcade cabinets, they separate the machine from the main power line, reducing noise and enhancing safety.

Implementing the right power conditioning solution can extend the lifespan of arcade machines and improve their reliability. Choose based on your specific power quality needs.
