Surge Protection in The
Greater Boston Area!
Surges
are sudden and unexpected spikes in
voltage that travel throughout your
home/office electrical system.
Some surges come from within your
own home/office, such as turning on
a vacuum cleaner or sending a
document to your printer. Other
surges come from outside your home,
as in electric utility switching,
downed power poles, cut power lines,
and lightning strikes. Surge can
even enter through cable televisions
and telephone wiring.
However, it is relatively easy to
guard against power surges by
installing surge protection
equipment. Surge protection
equipment blocks high voltage
electricity from passing further
through the line. Surge protection
equipment helps protect electronic
equipment from voltage fluctuations
in the lines, before it damages your
belongings. Even the smallest surge
can damage sensitive electronics,
like a computer, VCR or stereo.
For example, if lightning struck a
Boston area home or somewhere around
it, a surge may go through the
electrical system and anything that
is plugged in may get “fried”,
whether it is turned on or off.
Homeowners end having to pay out of
pocket to replace these appliances
and equipment.
Most homes have some type of
expensive electronic equipment in
it- for example, kitchen appliances,
water heaters, etc., which are
vulnerable to power surges. These
items can be protected with a whole
house surge protector. Additionally
entertainment equipment and/or
computers can be protected with a
surge bar. These affordable surge
protectors come with a lifetime
warranty and cover up to $25,000.00
worth of appliances.
