A power surge happens in milliseconds —
a thousandth of the time it takes you to blink your eyes. Maybe you see
the lights flicker, or your computer locks up for no apparent reason.
Maybe you don’t notice anything at all.
But that little spike in the current flowing through the wires of your house can have big consequences. The Insurance Information Institute includes insurance claims from power surges in the same category as damage from lightning strikes. Together they resulted in more than $1 billion in insured losses in 2008, with an average claim of $4,329. There’s an easy and affordable way to steer clear of those kinds of losses with Whole House Surge Protection. A whole-house SPD can protect against up to 40,000 amps of current flowing into your home from the outside; normal household power is 200 to 300 amps. When a sudden surge occurs, such as from a lightning strike or damage to a power line, the device detects the excess current and safely diverts it through the house’s grounding path. Give us a call today for more information on how we can install a whole home surge protector in your home. _ |
