Surge panels, also known as surge protectors or surge suppressors, are electrical devices designed to protect electronic equipment from voltage spikes or transient surges in electrical power. These power surges can occur due to various reasons, including lightning strikes, power grid fluctuations, or switching on/off high-powered devices
Compact in size and easy to install; ideal for residential homes and light-use split phase systems
Ideal for residential homes and light use commercial applications
Ideal for the branch panel in commercial and industrial applications and the main panel in light commercial applications
Ideal for point-of-entry or main service entrance installations
High levels of protection and advanced features including surge counters and performance monitoring, designed to provide the greatest level of protection where surge damage would lead to excessive loss or downtime on expensive machinery
The National Electrical Code® (NEC) has several articles related to surge protective devices. Learn more about the codes and requirements in your code year to ensure compliance.
