What Is a Power Surge?

A power surge is a sudden spike in voltage that can damage, degrade, or destroy electronic components. These surges can be caused by:

• Lightning strikes near your property
• Faulty appliances or wiring
• Short circuits or overloaded systems
• Power grid switching or transformer faults

Even minor surges, often unnoticed, can slowly wear down your electronics and shorten their lifespan. A single large surge can destroy equipment instantly. Without proper protection, your entire home’s electrical system is at risk.

How Surge Protectors Work

A surge protector, or surge protection device (SPD), is designed to block or redirect excess voltage safely, allowing only the standard flow of electricity to reach your connected devices.

Common Types of Surge Protection Devices:

Plug-in Surge Protectors: Ideal for individual appliances like TVs, computers, or routers.

Whole-House Surge Protectors: Installed at your switchboard, these protect your entire home from incoming surges through power lines.

TVSS (Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors): More advanced systems for commercial properties or highly sensitive electronics.

Choosing the right protector depends on joule rating (energy absorption capacity), clamping voltage, and response time.

Whether you’re in a family home, a smart-connected property, or a small office, surge protection offers powerful benefits:

• Protect expensive appliances (fridges, washers, air conditioners)

• Avoid costly repairs or data loss
• Reduce fire risk from electrical overload
• Gain peace of mind during lightning storms and blackouts

Choosing the Right Surge Protector for Your Needs

Here’s what to look for:

Joule Rating: The higher the joules, the better the protection.

Clamping Voltage: Lower voltage means faster activation and more sensitive protection.

Response Time: A fast response (under 1 nanosecond) means better protection.

Outlets: Ensure it can handle all your essential devices.

Added Features: Look for USB ports, status lights, or Ethernet protection for complete coverage.
