Protecting Your Home from Power Disturbances
It is the customer's responsibility to protect sensitive electronic equipment within their premises from external electrical events caused by storms, fallen power lines or faulty equipment from a nearby home or business.
Electrical systems can experience a variety of power fluctuations, including voltage surges, sags, swells, and electrical interference or “noise.” These conditions can occur in both homes and businesses and may affect sensitive electronic equipment.
Modern appliances and electronics—including heating and cooling equipment, kitchen appliances, lighting, computers, televisions, and other office or entertainment devices—can be vulnerable to these types of disturbances.
One simple and affordable way to help protect sensitive electronics is to use a quality surge protector or surge suppressor. While it cannot prevent every type of electrical disturbance, it can help reduce the risk of damage from voltage surges and potentially extend the useful life of your equipment.
