Whole house surge protection in Lamesa: common questions

Does whole house surge protection stop lightning?

It handles the surges that come in on the power lines from nearby strikes, which are the common ones. No device can promise protection from a direct strike to the house. It greatly reduces the everyday surge damage that shortens the life of electronics.

Do I still need power strips with a whole house surge protector?

For computers, televisions and audio equipment, yes. A good point-of-use protector behind the panel device gives layered protection.

Is surge protection required by code?

Recent editions of the National Electrical Code call for surge protection on new and replaced home services. Existing homes are not forced to add it, but it is a sensible upgrade.

Are surges common in Lamesa?

Yes. In West Texas, storms, utility switching and heavy air conditioning loads all produce surges. Most are too small to notice, and their effect on electronics adds up over time.
