Before installing a whole-home surge protector, it is crucial to understanding the working process of why it could benefit you. Here is a list of its functions:
To monitor the voltage capacity inside the residence, whole home surge protectors are placed inside the residential main electrical panel.
The protective device constantly monitors the flow and the capacity of the current as it enters your home through the main panel.
In the instance where an abnormally large flow of current is detected, the unit blocks the current from entering the main electrical system.
The entire function relies on the ability of the surge protector to redirect the flow of electricity through a ground wire away from the electrical system.
The main electrical ground wire is present in the electrical panel which is then linked to a copper ground rod.
When the unit detects a large voltage, it isolates the electrical systems and the circuits.
When the device detects a power surge, it restricts the current and directs it into the ground wire, thereby protecting your electrical appliances from power surges.
Whole house surge protection is a comprehensive solution designed to safeguard your home’s electrical system from unexpected power surges. By installing a dedicated surge protector at your electrical panel, you can protect your appliances, electronics, and other sensitive equipment from damage caused by voltage spikes. Here’s what whole house surge protection typically includes:
