For the highest quality and most customized surge protection services in the area, call in Total Electrical Solutions today. Our highly skilled professionals are dedicated to providing all your needs in the best, most professional manner. If you've ever experienced an electrical surge in your home you may know that it can be costly. Power surges and spikes can degrade your home's electrical wiring, electronic devices, connections, and components.

What You May Not Know About Portable Surge Protectors

What you may not know is that a power surge or spike can happen along your phone lines, cable T.V. lines, or internet lines as well as your home's electrical power lines. This means if you're using a portable surge protector that only has the capacity to protect a few of your electronics, all the other equipment in your home stays completely vulnerable. At Total Electrical Solutions, we recommend using whole home surge protection mounted on your main electrical panel.

What Causes Power Surges?

When an inductive load occurs (motors starting and stopping) it causes a transient voltage spike in your electrical system, however, these spikes may only occur for a thousandth of a second. This can cause damage to all the sensitive electronic equipment in your home such as TVs, computers, and all of your appliances over time, causing them to burn out and fail prematurely.

What We Can Do To Protect Your Home From Electrical Spikes & Surges

Install a panel-mounted surge protector and protect all the clean power loads (electronics) in your house. A whole-home surge protector will absorb the inductive loads that are created when loads such as the motor in your refrigerator, air-conditioning unit, freezer, hot tub, and furnace start and stop, thus protecting the clean power loads such as computers, washer, dryer, microwave, T.V., household appliances, LED lights, and anything with a circuit board.

Power surges can be caused by severe weather or a lightning strike which can enter your home in several ways such as through the phone lines, cable T.V., Christmas lights, or your electrical power lines. Call our electricians in Calgary today for an estimate on your surge protection system needs.

Why You Should Install a Panel Mounted Surge Protector

Installing a panel-mounted surge protector can minimize your losses the next time a severe storm hits or a power surge happens. This surge protection system will protect your entire home’s electrical system from being damaged.
