Power outages, severe storms, or power surges can cause sudden damage to your business’s electrical service. A certified electrician can install a surge protector to keep your commercial building safe along with its data and occupants.
What is a Surge Protector?
A surge protector is a small box installed next to your electrical service panel. It’s designed to protect electrical hardware from power surges, or very quick instances of transient high voltage. Power surges can send between 500 and 1,000 volts through hardware typically meant to handle about 120 volts. In many cases, power surges can cause downtime, damage, and even danger to your customers and employees.
Why Would I Need a Certified Electrician For a Surge Protector?
A certified electrician is the foremost expert in how to prevent and protect against power surges. Power surges can disrupt and delete valuable data if your business relies on servers. They can also leave your restaurant or tenants without refrigeration, your retail business without climate control or point-of-sale systems, your production machinery without power, or your office building without elevators, security systems, or fire alarms. A certified electrician can help you determine the best ways to keep your business safe and install the right surge protector for your building’s needs and capacity.
What Surge Protector Services Can a Certified Electrician Provide?
A certified electrician can provide a wide variety of commercial electrical services. These include:
- Surge protector installation
- Surge protector servicing
- Surge protector replacement
A certified electrician can also help you set up your business for success by replacing faulty wiring or providing an electrical service upgrade to reduce your chances of power surges.
