What is Surge Protection?
Surge Protection or Surge Suppressor is a piece of equipment designed to protect all types of electrical equipment from voltage spikes. The surge protector regulates the voltage an electric device receives by blocking or grounding the voltage so that it is safe for the equipment. Voltage Strikes or Transient Voltage Surges can be caused by lightning, power outages, tripped circuit breakers, short circuits, Power Company malfunctions, electromagnetic pulses, inductive spikes or power transitions in other large equipment on the same power line.
When most people think of surge protection, they think of the surge protector power strip for computers or other home electronics. Surge Protector Power Strips act on the same principal as Total Energy Concepts and V-Blox Transient Voltage Surge Protectors but on a larger scale. Our Transient Voltage Surge Protectors can protect the equipment in an entire house or entire business.
What are the benefits of Surge Protection?
If you own a house or business, especially in some of the nation’s highest lightning areas, you have undoubtedly experienced a power outage. If the outage was bad enough you may have had equipment get so damaged that you had to replace it. Replacing equipment is neither easy nor inexpensive. Having a surge protection comes with many benefits including:
- Reduces the loss of equipment due to voltage spikes
- Reduces equipment downtime
- Reduces maintenance costs
- Reduces Electric Bill
- Increases your bottom line
Transient Voltage Surge Protectors can benefit many people and the environment. Going Green with V-Blox and Total Energy Concepts is just a little way to give back to the environment.
