How it works

A surge protection device at the switchboard diverts dangerous spikes before they reach your appliances. It works alongside good-quality surge protected power boards for sensitive gear.

Best done with a switchboard upgrade

If you're upgrading your switchboard, adding surge protection at the same time costs very little extra.

Common questions

Will surge protection stop lightning damage?

No device can stop a direct lightning strike, but surge protection greatly reduces damage from the much more common spikes during storms.

Do I still need surge power boards?

For TVs, computers and modems, a quality surge power board adds a second layer of protection.

Does my switchboard have room?

We'll check. If it's full or old, we can talk about a switchboard upgrade at the same time.
