Frequently Asked Questions
What is a whole home surge protector?
A whole home surge protector is a device installed at your power panel that helps manage peaks in electrical voltage for every outlet and device in your home. It protects against power spikes that can occur due to power grid problems or powerful equipment operating in your home.
How does whole home surge protection work?
Whole home surge protection works by detecting power surges and quickly blocking their path, similar to a fast-acting, specialized fuse. It protects your electronics and other equipment from damage caused by power surges.
What events could produce power surges?
Power surges can be caused by a variety of events, including powerful motors cycling in your home (like AC compressors), disruptions in the power grid (like transformer failure), accidents causing wire damage nearby, and sudden changes (like restoration of power to several homes).
Can I use power strips with whole home surge protection?
