Power Surges: Are You Protected?
The lights flicker off, and your computer screen goes blank. When the lights come back on, your computer doesn’t. A power surge could be the reason.
Power surges are sudden spikes in electrical voltage. They’re often caused by lightning strikes or bad weather that knocks out power. A surge can come through cable TV, a satellite dish, telephone lines, or electrical service lines. It can instantly overload and short out the circuitry of electronics, such as air conditioners, televisions, computers, cell phones, and appliances.
In-home Protection
You can install devices that may help protect against power surges. Special electrical outlets and point-of-use power strips that offer surge protection can prevent damage to electronics. Another option is a service entrance surge protector that mounts on your home’s main electrical panel or at the base of your electrical meter.Insurance Can Help
Homeowners insurance typically covers the cost of replacing an electrical or electronic device that is damaged by a power surge. Check your policy for coverage details.GE- 5008612.1 (10/22)(Exp.10/24)
