Is Your Surge Protector Really Protecting the Surge?

If you're an electrician in Winston-Salem NC, you've been asked the same question a lot. Everyone always wonders about the name "surge protector." They ask us what a surge really is when it comes to your home or business's electrical system. Then they go further to ask if their protector is really doing it's job. Well the answer is quite simple, for both!

Surge protectors protect against your outlet from short circuiting and blowing a fuse. When you have a lot of things plugged into the wall, it can cause the outlet to overflow with energy. Surge protectors stop this through technology and conductive metal. You can tell if your surge protector is doing its job if the light is on. The light will show whether or not the protector is prepared for the job.
