Whether upgrading the panel box or just being interested in protecting the various electronic investments users have made in their homes, they should protect the electronic investments with whole-house surge protection.
For example, if the house is hit by lightning or there’s a surge in the power grid, users need surge protection. Maybe they have one or more computer systems, or a high-end entertainment system they want to protect. Or maybe users have a workshop with expensive power tools. Even an in-law residence with essential medical equipment requires reliable power. Any of these would make perfect reasons to add whole-house surge protection.
Surge protectors
Whole-house surge protectors are small, four-inch x four-inch devices that are directly wired in into your electric panel box. They absorb the shock for the entire house, saving thousands of dollars in damage to delicate electronics, computers, and appliances.
Users don’t have to throw away the plug-in surge protector type power strips, as every little bit of protection helps. Whole-house surge protection takes a hit should a storm send a power surge their way.
