SURGE PROTECTION

<Surge Protection>|FAQs|Surge Protectors

Many of the appliances and electronic equipment you use everyday can be severely damaged by even the slightest surge in electricity. That's because the design in items like washing machines, stereos, desktop computers and VCRs is very sensitive to any change in electric currents.

Laurens Electric already has lightning and surge protection built into its system of power lines. However, with meter based surge suppressors, hardwire surge suppressors, and secondary surge protectors, ProTec Surge Protection is an added measure you can choose to ensure your electrical equipment is as safe as possible.

Internal and External Surge Protection

External Protection
Meter-Treater meter based external surge suppressors are designed to reduce externally generated surges before entering the house through the power line.
Meter based surge suppression is available to Laurens Electric customers only.

Internal Outlet Protectors
Outlet Protectors reduce surges generated inside the house or other stray surges such as air conditioners cycling on and off.
These protectors are purchased and shipped UPS to the customer's home.
