Add Another Layer of Protection for Your Electronics

Voltage surges can occur during lightning-related electrical disturbances, utility switching, or changes in the electrical supply. A whole-house surge protective device installed at or near the electrical panel can help limit transient surges entering your home's electrical system. Royal Electric evaluates panel compatibility, grounding, and installation requirements before recommending a suitable device.


Whole-house surge protection works alongside other electrical safeguards and can be supplemented with plug-in surge protectors for sensitive electronics. Although no surge protection system can prevent all electrical damage, properly selected and installed protection can help reduce the risk posed by certain voltage surges.
