Benefits Of Home Surge Protector
• A plug in surge protector is limited to protected only the things that are plugged into it. These point of use surge protectors have the capacity to handle small to medium electrical surges only.
• A whole home surge protector is installed directly into a home electrical panel, and is designed to handle larger electrical surges. They protect the entire home from electrical surges resulting from utility grid, portable generators, home solar systems, old appliance equipment, etc.
Standard For All New Homes:
Whole home surge protectors are required to be installed in all new homes. This is because of the ever growing amount of electronics that homes are having plugged into them. Also home surge protectors were introduced partly due to certain parts of the country experiencing an unstable utility grid.
Home Surge Protectors Have Warranty Guarantees:
Whole home surge protectors should always come with up to $75,000 worth of coverage if the surge protector fails to do its job correctly. Any surge protector that a home purchases should come with a warranty that cover the equipment that is plugged into it. If it doesn't, then it should not be used as surge protection.
