  • You may be wondering, what is whole-home surge protection? A surge protector is a device hooked into your electrical outlet or electrical panel, protecting your electronic devices from whole-house surges or high-voltage spikes. These surges can be caused by lightning, electrical overloads, downed power lines and more. How they work: surge protectors monitor voltage levels and divert excess voltage into the ground when capacity has been reached, protecting devices and appliances from damage.

  • There are two common components used for surge protector installation in Hillsboro, OR — Metal Oxide Varistors and Gas Discharge Arrestors. MOVs take in excess voltage, absorb it, and divert that energy into the ground, while GDAs ionize gas conducting voltage away from appliances and devices. There are typically three types of surge protectors that can be installed when you enlist our services for whole home surge protection. Hillsboro, OR electricians can install a type 1, 2, or 3 surge protector.
