FREDERICK WHOLE-HOUSE SURGE PROTECTION
Prevent External Power Surges From Damaging Your Electronics
What's A Power Surge?
A power surge is an abrupt, unanticipated increase in the electrical voltage that is present in a circuit. Although surges are common, your electronics, appliances, and other electrical components can be harmed by these significant power fluctuations. For property that was harmed by a single surge, you might end up having to pay several hundred or even thousands of dollars to replace it.

Discover how power surges happen and how the whole-home surge protection system from Electricians Frederick MD functions below.
Common Causes Of Power Surges
- Overloading electrical circuits
Overloading electrical circuits can cause them to overheat and lead to power surges.
- Malfunctioning or faulty wiring
Faulty wiring can be a sneaky culprit behind power surges. If the wires in your home are damaged or old, they can interrupt the flow of electricity and cause surges.
- Faulty electrical appliances and devices
Faulty appliances can generate surges when they start up or shut down.
- Lightning strikes
Nature's fireworks can pack a powerful punch when it comes to power surges. Lightning strikes near power lines can send a surge of electricity surging through your home's electrical system.
- Power cycling of large appliances
The on-off cycle of large appliances like air conditioners and refrigerators can introduce power surges. When these devices turn on, they draw a large amount of power, which can disrupt the electrical flow and create surges.
Benefits Of Whole-House Surge Protection For Homes & Businesses
Surge protection is crucial to safeguard your electronic devices from damage brought on by power surges, just as a home generator protects your power source during outages. Whole-house surge protection prevents damage to your electronics and appliances by soaking up extra energy from a surge before it reaches your gadgets.
A high-quality protection system creates a barrier between your circuits and your appliances, regardless of what causes the surge, so you never have to be concerned about a lightning strike or faulty wires damaging your priceless items.
In addition to extending the lifespan of your home's major electrical components, whole-house surge protection can lower your homeowner's insurance premiums. Since surge protection systems lower the amount of damages the insurance provider would have to pay out for covered claims, many property insurance companies provide discounts for homes or businesses that have them installed.
Installing a Surge Protector
At Electricians Frederick MD, we offer convenient whole-house surge protection. For your appliances' protection, we install point-of-use surge protectors. Although some power strips come with basic surge protection built in, plugs don't shield your appliances the same way a surge protector does, so they are insufficient to safeguard your home. Any electrical project, no matter how big or small, can be handled by our team of electricians in Frederick because we are all qualified, trained, and equipped.
