Inline surge protector

I am looking to plug my wall mounted TV into a surge protector. The power plug is on the wall behind the TV. I was hoping to find a fairly sleek looking inline surge protector and found this: https://powertraveller.com/iwantsome...ection/000096/. This looks like it fits the plug for my TV just fine which is rated at 10A 125V 1250W. Though I'm concerned because primary every place I see this gadget for sale is in Europe and I know their power is different there. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to electrical things so I want to make sure this won't fry my TV. The specifications same to be about the same:

* Working Voltage: 120VAC
* Maximum Current: 10 Amps
* Maximum Current Surge Handling: 2500 Amps
* Maximum Clamping: 900 V @ 2500 Amps (8/20s)
* Power Consumption: 0.6 Amps

Does anyone know if this is compatible with the US power system and our TV/computer plugs?

Thanks
