Surge Protector Installation
Whole-House Surge Protector System Installation
A surge protector device (like a power strip with surge protection) and a whole-house surge protector both aim to protect electronics from electrical surges, but they differ in scope, installation, and the level of protection they provide. A surge protector device (power strip with surge protection) protects only the devices plugged into it. On the other hand, a whole-house surge protector protects the entire home’s electrical system, including all appliances, electronics, and devices plugged into any outlet. A whole-house surge protector is installed at your home's main electrical panel, it covers all circuits and outlets in the house.

Benefits of Installing a Whole-House Surge Protector
- Provides a much higher level of protection against both external surges (like from lightning strikes, utility grid problems) and internal surges (from large appliances like HVAC systems switching on).
- It is designed to handle large and small surges.
- Surge protector installation provides comprehensive protection for the whole-house, including hard-wired appliances like your HVAC system, refrigerator, washer, and dryer, which individual plug-in surge protectors cannot protect.
- Whole-house surge protectors offer more robust protection and can handle much larger surges, including direct lightning strikes, whereas surge protector devices have limited capacity and might fail in the case of a significant surge.
Whole-House Surge Protection
Whole-house surge protectors offer comprehensive protection for all devices in the home, including hard-wired systems, while individual surge protectors are more localized solutions meant for specific electronics plugged into them.
