Surge protection

Surge protection devices are highly recommended to safeguard your electrical equipment and appliances from damage caused by power fluctuations and for compliance with wiring regulations.

Surge protection is designed to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes or surges that can occur due to lightning strikes, power outages, or other electrical disturbances. These surges can cause significant damage to the electronics in your appliances, resulting in costly repairs or early failures of equipment.

Due to the likelihood of damage from surges, the regulations require surge protection to be installed for new circuits of safety services such as fire alarms. In other cases, if the client deems the financial loss acceptable it is possible but not recommended to omit this protection with a signed declaration and risk assessment.

Whole-house surge protection is installed at the main electrical intake and offers protection to all electrical devices in the house such as computers, TVs, or other electronics. These are consumable devices that absorb voltage spikes and may need to be replaced periodically to ensure they are still providing adequate protection. The surge cartridges are easily replaceable once depleted with colour indicators showing their condition. The surge protection devices can either be located within the consumer unit where space is available or within a separate enclosure.
