Common questions
Whole-House Surge Protection FAQ
What to know about panel-mounted protection and long-term maintenance.
What causes power surges?+
Lightning, utility switching, downed power lines, and large motors cycling on and off can all create voltage spikes. Repeated smaller surges can also damage electronics over time.
How does whole-house surge protection work?+
A device installed at the main panel diverts excess voltage toward the grounding system before the surge travels throughout the home’s wiring.
Do I still need plug-in surge strips?+
Whole-house protection provides the primary layer. Quality point-of-use strips can provide a second layer for especially sensitive electronics.
How long does a surge protector last?+
Service life varies with the device and surge exposure. Many last five to ten years and include an indicator showing when replacement is needed; periodic inspection is recommended.
What does installation cost?+
Typical installations range from $400 to $800 or more depending on equipment rating, panel compatibility, and installation conditions. ABR provides a detailed quote before starting.
