  1. The Importance of Surge Protection The power surge is a sudden, brief spike in voltage, typically extreme, and causes disruption. A rise in power can negatively affect many homes or businesses simultaneously. It only takes a second to disable devices in many homes equipped with thousands of dollars worth of electrical equipment. A lightning strike can cause significant, rapid, and dangerous power surges. Small surges repeatedly damage your equipment. Over time, they are frequently absorbed and cause damage. A power surge can cause damage to your home even if you are not aware it is occurring, so it's recommended to hire an electrician to assess your home, no matter how little the surge may have been. Protect sensitive equipment from any damage by installing surge protection devices. It is not just essential to protect businesses from surges since downtime can be costly to deal with or replace expensive equipment; it is also vital for homeowners. With the two-factors approach to surge protection, your home will be protected. Factor One: Protection of the Source Taking care of the incoming power, phone, and cable TV lines is the first step to complete surge protection in any home. An electrician can also install surge protection products on outdoor items like air conditioner compressors, pool equipment, and landscape lighting. Factor Two: Point-of-use protection Electricians provide surge protection at the point of use as well. Suppose an extra current manages to sneak past the surge protection. Point-of-use strips can protect sensitive devices such as TVs, DVRs, computers, microwaves, etc. When you combine these two methods, you can eliminate the potential for power surges to cause damage to your home's circuits. A power surge is usually caused by the turning on and off of large appliances inside your home. The average home circuit voltage is 120 volts. More than ten times this amount of power might be generated by a surge. Surges in power are becoming more common, with the average home experiencing multiple surges a day, or approximately 2,000 a year. An area that is susceptible to storms and lightning can cause surges. An electrician can install numerous points of protection to protect your appliances and home.
