Power Surge Protection

You're settling in for a relaxing evening at home when a lightning strike or power grid fluctuation suddenly sends a surge of electricity through your home, potentially damaging your favorite electronics. This scenario isn't just a hypothetical. Power surges are a real threat to your home's electrical system and the devices connected to it. At Mr. Electric, we offer various professional electrical services that can help you avoid danger, including whole house surge protection installation in Littleton, Colorado, and nearby areas. Keep reading to discover how power surges can affect your property and the most effective strategies for protecting your valuable electronics. 

Understanding the Causes and Effects of Power Surges

A power surge is an abrupt, significant increase in voltage that surpasses the standard flow of electricity in your home. These surges can originate from external sources like lightning strikes or power grid changes or from internal sources such as large appliances cycling on and off. Regardless of their origin, the effects can be detrimental. Surges can fry circuits, melt plastic, and even spark fires, posing a risk to your electronics and your safety. 

Protecting Your Electronics from Surge Damage

Your home is filled with electronics that are vulnerable to power surges, from laptops and televisions to refrigerators and air conditioners. The key to protecting these devices lies in surge protectors, which absorb or redirect the excess electricity away from your electronics. Surge protectors come in different forms, including power strips and individual outlet protectors. It's important to choose a surge protector with a sufficient joule rating, which indicates how much energy it can absorb before failing.

Is Whole-House Power Surge Protection Installation Necessary?

Beyond individual surge protectors, whole-house surge protection offers an additional layer of security. This system is installed at your electrical panel, providing a first line of defense against external surges. While whole-house protectors won't guard against all surges, especially those generated inside the home, they significantly reduce the risk of damage from external sources. Given the potential cost of replacing damaged electronics and the safety risks involved, whole-house surge protection is a worthwhile investment for comprehensive home safety.

Maintenance Tips for Your Surge Protection Devices

Regularly check the status indicators on your surge protectors. If the indicator shows it's no longer providing protection, it's time to replace the unit. Be aware of the lifespan of your surge protectors as well. Even if they haven't been hit by a major surge, they can wear out over time. Whole-house surge protectors should be inspected by a professional electrician periodically to ensure they're in good working order.

I needed some rewiring of a thermostat for a heated flooring wall unit that wasn't functioning properly due to complexities with the existing home wiring. Bill from Mr. Electric was able to respond same with a great price and did the work in the spot. Just what you look for when you find a contractor.
