So not all transformer-sized outlets are, in fact, transformer-spaced. Fortunately, the surge protector I bought to replace that one due to age (also an APC) has transformer-sized outlets large enough to accommodate the transformer on the clock. Four of the outlets are BlockSpace sized, which means that they will accommodate even the largest and most oddly-sized AC plugs.
