PowerGuard Electrical Surge Protection

Surges in voltage levels are caused by many different events. Lightning is the most common culprit, but accidents involving power poles or animals contacting power line equipment can generate surges. Inside your home, major appliances or other large motors switching on and off, faulty wiring, or poor grounding can cause surges.

Protecting your electronic equipment from power surges and the damage they may cause, makes sense. The best way to accomplish this is with PowerGuard's two-level approach. PowerGuard uses two levels of suppressors to step down surges, offering superior protection from both externally and internally generated surges. The first level is a high-energy surge suppressor professionally installed into your meter base. This suppressor will withstand surges up to 45,000 amps. To accompany the meter base suppressor, plug-in surge suppressor is used to add further protection to equipment that requires phone, DSL, and/or coax connections.
