Whole House Surge Protection Installation in Cresskill, NJ

Why You Need Surge Protection

Power surges don’t just happen during storms.

They can occur when:

• Utility companies switch power sources
• Large appliances like AC units cycle on and off
• Power lines are damaged or repaired

These small but frequent surges can destroy electronics, reduce appliance life, and even damage your electrical panel.

Installing a power surge protector for your electrical panel is the best way to stop these problems before they start.

How a Whole House Surge Protector Works

A residential surge protector is installed directly at your main electrical panel.

It blocks dangerous voltage spikes before they enter your home’s wiring.

We install both Type 1 and Type 2 electrical panel surge protectors:

• Type 1 Surge Protector: Installed before the main breaker to protect against external surges from the utility grid.
• Type 2 Surge Protector: Installed after the main breaker to protect against both internal and external surges.

For full coverage, we recommend combining panel surge protection with plug-in surge strips for sensitive electronics like computers, TVs, and routers.
