What Is Whole House Surge Protection?
Most commonly hardwired to your home’s electrical service box, whole house surge protection devices are the best way to protect the appliances in your home from electrical surges.
When voltage spikes occur, whole house surge protection devices either block the electrical current or send it to the ground. This protects your major appliances from experiencing serious damage when excess energy finds its way into your home.
What Causes Surges?
Power surges can make their way into any electrical device or appliance in your home. This excess energy can be caused by several events such as:
- Tripped circuit breakers
- Lightning strikes
- Power outages
- Malfunctions with the power grid
Whatever the cause, power surges can degrade your appliances over time, shorten their lifespan, and completely fry circuit boards. TVs, washers, dryers, dishwashers, computers, light bulbs, stoves, and other devices and appliances are all at risk of damage caused by power surges.
