Panel-Level Protection for Every Circuit

Lightning strikes, utility switching and large motors cycling on and off send voltage spikes through your wiring. A plug-in power strip only protects one outlet. A whole home surge protector mounts at your electrical panel and clamps those spikes before they reach your HVAC controls, appliances, garage door openers and electronics.

What a Whole Home Surge Protector Covers:

  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ
    Panel-Mounted Protection: A Type 1 or Type 2 surge protective device (SPD) installed at your main panel
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ
    Every Hardwired Load: HVAC boards, well pumps, ranges, washers and dryers that cannot use a power strip
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ
    Code Compliance: Since the 2020 National Electrical Code, an SPD is required whenever a home's electrical service is installed or replaced
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ
    Layered Defense: Works with point-of-use protectors for sensitive electronics such as computers and TVs

Our Installation Process:

  1. 1
    Panel Assessment: We check your panel, breaker space and grounding before choosing a device.
  2. 2
    Grounding Check: We verify the grounding electrode system, since an SPD only works with a solid ground.
  3. 3
    Installation: We mount the SPD at the panel on a dedicated breaker with short, direct leads.
  4. 4
    Verification: We confirm the status indicator and test the circuits it protects.
  5. 5
    Documentation: You get the device model and warranty details for your records and insurer.

FAQ

Whole Home Surge Protection FAQ

Straight answers to the questions North Jersey homeowners ask us most.

Yes. Power strips only protect what is plugged into them. Most surge damage happens to hardwired equipment like furnace and AC control boards, which only a panel-mounted device can protect.
Yes. The 2020 National Electrical Code requires a surge protective device whenever a dwelling's service equipment is installed or replaced, so we include one with every panel upgrade.
Most units last many years, but each large surge uses up part of their capacity. The device has an indicator light that shows when it needs to be replaced.
