Recently Milestone Electric posted an important home safety message, ’ Home Safety Tip No. 277.’ Here’s more on that topic.
ThisOldHouse.com provides in-depth information about surge protection, the two main types of surges, the best defense and more.
The two main power surges you need to be aware of to protect your home appliances and electronics are lightning strikes and downed power lines. Lightning induced surges are the most fearful and powerful. Fortunately these are not the most common type of surge.
The best defense to protect your home is a whole-home surge protector. These are typically hard-wired to the service panel by your local Dallas/Fort Worth electrician. You can also take additional steps to protect your home by installing “plug-in” surge protectors to help your major appliances, electronics, computers, etc.
