During a power surge, your device's interior wiring will overheat and start to burn. With so much modern technology available, some common at-risk devices you might have include computers, televisions, phones, stereos, microwaves, and many other important and expensive gadgets. Many of your electronic devices have circuitry or microchips that make them particularly sensitive to voltage fluctuations. The best way to safeguard your valued devices against power surges is through whole house surge protection installation from Mr. Electric of Baton Rouge. Even the slightest power surge can do the following:

    • Put a strain on your devices
    • Compromise their performance

The Causes of Power Surges


Now that you understand what power surges are, the next important step is knowing what causes power surges. One of the most common reasons power surges happen is due to the normal operation of heavy-duty electrical devices. Some of the devices requiring a significant amount of energy to switch their compressors or motors on or off include clothes dryers, refrigerators, and air conditioners. These high-powered appliances create high electricity demands, disrupting the constant voltage flow to your home's electrical system. Check out the following potential causes of power surges:

  • Downed power lines.
  • Faulty electric wiring.
  • Issues with utility company’s lines, transformers, and other equipment.
  • Although rare, lightning sometimes causes power surges. This phenomenon increases electrical pressure by millions of volts and overwhelms even the most effective power strip surge protector.
