As we explore ways to protect valuable electronic devices, surge protection devices (SPDs) play a vital role. SPDs act as shields against voltage spikes, known as power surges, which can cause severe electrical damage in homes and commercial settings.
These transient surges often come from lightning strikes or utility switching, putting sensitive electronics such as televisions, HVAC units, hot tubs and saunas at risk. At Ottawa Electric, we install surge protective devices directly onto electrical panels—such as DIN rail mounted units—to ensure stable electric power quality across your home’s electrical system.
Proper surge protection products prevent harm to electrical components like printed circuit boards and varistors inside home appliances. With whole-house surge protectors fitted near the service entrance or point-of-use options plugged into power strips for individual devices—we safeguard all of your essential home electronics against excess voltage conditions caused by lightning storms or downed power lines.
A quality SPD protects investments by extending the lifespan of your appliances.
