Lake County Surge Protection For Homes And Business
Surges are sudden and unexpected spikes in voltage that can travel throughout your Lake County home or office's electrical system.
Every Lake County home and office should have a whole house surge protector. This device will divert the surge to ground before it reaches your appliances if a surge of power comes into the electrical panel, protecting the appliance from being destroyed and possibly starting a fire.
Surges, also known as transient surges or spikes, are momentary increases in ordinary household voltage. They occur over 2,000 times a year in the average home. Surges can be generated externally and internally. Lightning storms, accidents and utility power station switching can generate significant transient events. Home appliances such as furnaces, air conditioners, washers and dryers can also generate surges that travel back to the breaker panel and throughout your home.

- Power Strips
- TV Protection
- Whole House Protection
Many Lake County home and business owners have surge protectors connected to one or two appliances or electronics. These are usually bars with a reset switch and room for four or five plugs. The bar plugs into an electrical outlet. When too much power comes through the outlet, the bar automatically clicks off, protecting the appliances that are plugged into it. However, these are for one outlet only and only for the specific items connected to the bar. Having whole house surge protection does not mean having one of these devices attached to every outlet in your home or office.
With proper surge protection for the whole house or office, you need a protector that is wired into your electrical panel. Installing such a system in your home or office is an inexpensive insurance policy. Also, it will give you peace of mind that your home and family have the protection they need.
