I want to know if there is any built-in power surge protection in the Mac mini 2023. And do I need to buy an outlet with surge protector to prevent the mac mini from being damaged by potential power surges?
Thanks.

If you are looking for advice I would recommend looking into a whole-house surge protector that a licensed electrician can install in your breaker panel. With almost all products containing electronics these days, and very expensive ones like an HDTV, computers, AVRs, etc., it’s better to be proactive than sorry.
I did this in my own home for peace of mind. The price was $450 installed by a licensed electrician. If you are a DYI’er the protector itself costs about $200 from Amazon, Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, etc.

Not necessary, plug straight in. No battery backup needed either. All Macs are surge protected and recover automatically after power outages.
I think that it is a good idea. I use strip surge protectors to protect my Mac mini's, Desktop External Drives, Drive Dock, Self-Powered Hub and Speaker System.
Is there any built-in surge protection for Mac mini m2 (2023) ?
