One thing to remember when talking about protection from Mains Power deviations, be they low or High, addressing surges - abnormally HIGH voltage is simple -
put a Thermistor in series with the line load-

Addressing Under voltage (aka Brownouts) is more of a challenge w/ out a true 'protection circuit' that will shut off the supply if the incoming voltage is below your set point - 120 VAC... typically involving some sort of sensor/or relay that has a narrow trigger band...
