The importance of Surge Protection
Electrical surge protection is vital because it acts as a shield for your electronics. It absorbs sudden, massive spikes in voltage, preventing your expensive devices from being permanently damaged. Without it, power surges can even start dangerous electrical fires in your home.
A power surge is like a sudden rush of water in a pipe. If the pressure gets too high, the pipe bursts. A power surge happens when electricity suddenly pushes way past the normal limit. In the US, wall outlets normally send out about 120 volts of electricity. If a surge pushes that voltage up to thousands of volts in a split second, it "fries" the tiny computer chips inside your gadgets.
