How Does A Surge Protector Work?
Surge Protectors are designed to only allow a specific amount of electricity into your home. If the amount of incoming electricity exceeds the specified amount, the surge protector will absorb the electricity and prevent damage to your home electronics.
Without a surge protector, the spike in electricity may cause damage to sensitive electronics, or cause a fire within the home.
Surge protector installation is complex in nature and should only be completed by a licensed electrician. Call Our Team Today for a free quote!
