NewsLady Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 The Lightning Season is winding down but it's better to be early than late. Tragically, I still get calls from people after they've suffered damage from surges. A recent example is someone who unplugs everything when lightning is getting close. Unfortunately, the strike hit before they could get this done and they experienced a lot of damage. Also, if you are unplugging something at the moment of the strike, it could be very dangerous for you.If you have panel mount surge protectors that use indicator lights, you don't have the level of protection you've been led to believe. These products use components that degrade over time and should be replaced every 3-5 years. They also allow between 400-600 volts to pass to your 120 volt equipment before they even start to work...not good! I install the highest quality panel mount surge protectors in a set of two, one for lightning and the other for utility surges. At $275 installed (Boquete only), this set is a bargain that you don't want to be without. No degrading components, no indicator lights, no excessive voltages passed through to your valuable equipment. If you want true Whole House Protection, your Cable TV, Telephone, Internet Radio wires need dedicated surge protectors separate from the panel mount units. Lightning can travel on ANY wire that enters the building and I know of many people who have sustained considerable lightning damage through the Cable Onda (cable TV) service wire. Don't delay, surges can happen at any time, in any season.
