Whole House Surge Protectors in Citrus & Marion County, FL

Maintain Power With a Surge Protector

Storms, wind, and downed power lines are all common reasons the electricity goes out. However, the power can kick off without warning, even in good weather conditions. Power surges are an especially big threat if you have faulty wiring somewhere in your home. Fortunately, whole-house surge protectors are a reliable way to keep the power on, even if there's a fluctuation in voltage. The team at Mr. Electric of Citrus & Marion County would be happy to explain the pros of a whole-house protector and walk you through the installation process. We're proud to serve numerous communities in the area, including Inverness, Crystal River, Homosassa, Beverly Hills, and Le Canto, FL.

  • Surge protectors are common in many households. However, the unit that most of us have is not adequate for handling a major power surge. Typically, surge protectors work by passing the electrical current from the outlet to devices plugged into a power strip. When a surge occurs, the protector automatically redirects the excess electricity to another component of the power strip (the MOVs). Surge protectors you buy at the hardware store may work for limited protection, but they don't bring the same amount of security as whole-house surge protector installation.

  • The best whole-house surge protectors offer reliable protection to all the appliances in your home. Whole-house units work similarly to traditional ones but are designed to withstand numerous power surges over time. Instead of only protecting what's plugged into the power strip, they offer protection to all devices powered by the connected electrical panel. While there are pros and cons to a whole-house surge protector, it's difficult to overstate the peace of mind you'll get from these reliable components.

When to Expect a Power Surge

It's difficult to anticipate a power surge, but it does help to know when a surge is most likely to occur. Oftentimes, heavy-duty electrical appliances, such as refrigerators, air conditioners, and dryers, cause power surges. In general, any appliance that uses a significant amount of electricity at once could trigger a power surge. Straining an electrical system is a recipe for voltage fluctuations, power surges, and damaged devices. Here are a few other reasons for power surges:

  • Faulty electrical wiring
  • Downed or damaged power lines
  • Problems with the utility company, transformers, and other components
  • Lightning (only in rare cases)

  • Power surges are sudden increases in voltage that greatly exceed 120 volts (the standard for many outlets). These massive increases in power can significantly damage anything plugged into the outlet, overheating the wiring from the inside out. Devices with circuitry or microchips tend to be especially susceptible to power surges. Power surges small and large have the potential to:

    • Strain or damage devices
    • Destroy their components
    • Diminish performance

    Highly recommended! Installed my Tesla Charger and it was a difficult project with my breaker box in the basement but it was no issue at all.
