A whole home surge protector protects all of your home’s appliances and electronics from damaging voltage spikes. It limits excess electrical current (a power surge) by blocking the flow or shorting it to the ground. The protection includes surges due to lightning strikes, downed power lines, as well as surges due to your home’s large appliances. Although you may hear more about surges due to lightning strikes or downed power lines, up to 80% of surges actually come from within your home.

What Is A Surge?

A surge is an electrical disturbance that travels through your AC Power, Telephone and Cable lines, potentially damaging home electronics and appliances.
