About Power Surges

A power surge occurs when the power line voltage surpasses nominal levels and remains high longer than 10 milliseconds. These spikes are most often caused by your power provider, electrical problems inside your home, or lightning strikes.

Damage Caused by Power Surges

Electronics are increasingly more sophisticated, utilizing technology that was not widely used even five years ago. Furnaces, clothes washers & dryers, refrigerators and A/C units along with smaller electronics such as televisions, stereos, microwaves, computers, and telephone systems are damaged by even small voltage changes. Damage from small surges can add up over time and may eventually shorten the life of your equipment or even destroy it.


A power surge can damage your equipment even if you are not using it; many devices have electronic timers, clocks, or remote controls which remain in operation even when it is not in use. Also, some appliances cycle off and on at random like air conditioners, water heaters, pumps, or refrigerators and they could be on during a surge.

Limits of Circuit Breaker Protection

Circuit breakers will not protect your appliances and other electronics. They are only designed to protect against over-current, not a voltage spike or drop.


According to one of the country's largest casualty loss insurers, over 63% of all loss-pay-outs on electronic equipment are due to power problems. However, the good news is that you can guard against these problems and prevent costly repairs through the use of good quality surge suppressors. Investing in Whole House Surge Protection will help protect your expensive electronic items so you can receive years of service and enjoyment!

Whole House Surge Protection Installation | Nisat Electric | Frisco, TXWhole House Surge Protection

Surge protectors work by regulating the flow of electricity throughout your house. When the voltage goes up, the surge protector drains all of the excess voltage into the ground and away from sensitive equipment and electronics in your home.

 

Whole house surge protectors are designed to protect homes against transient surges that enter through the home's service entrance, not from surges created internally in the home when motors turn on and off. In addition, they are not comparable to lightning rods; they may not survive direct lightening strikes or sustained line over-voltages (broken neutral).

Whole House Surge Protection Warranty

Nisat Electric installs surge protectors that provide a manufacturer's $25,000 lifetime limited warranty for certain equipment in your home. We also provide written documentation that a licensed electrician installed your unit (a condition of the manufacturer's warranty).

Installing Whole House Surge Protection

Whole house surge protectors are installed in your electrical panel so they are out of your way. You should call a licensed electrician to install your whole house surge protection. The warranty provided by the whole house surge protection system's manufacturer will be void without written documentation that a licensed electrician installed your unit.
