Residential Surge Protection Devices
Power surges can happen at any time and often without warning. Whether caused by lightning, utility issues, or everyday electrical usage, surges can damage sensitive electronics and shorten the life of your home’s electrical equipment.
We install residential surge protection devices designed to protect your home, appliances, and electronics from unexpected voltage spikes.
What Is a Power Surge?
A power surge is a sudden increase in electrical voltage that can travel through your home’s wiring. Even small surges — not just lightning strikes — can cause cumulative damage over time.
Common causes of power surges include:
-
Lightning activity
-
Utility power fluctuations
-
Downed power lines
-
Large appliances cycling on and off
-
Electrical system faults
Without protection, these surges can damage electronics quietly and permanently.
Whole-Home Surge Protection
Whole-home surge protection devices are installed at your electrical panel and act as the first line of defense for your entire electrical system.
Benefits include:
-
Protection for all connected circuits
-
Reduced risk of damage to appliances and electronics

Extended lifespan of electrical equipment
-
Improved electrical system safety
This type of protection works alongside point-of-use surge strips for complete coverage.
Point-of-Use Surge Protection
In addition to whole-home protection, certain electronics benefit from additional safeguards.
