Types of Surge Protection
Almost all surge suppressors are made up of single or multiple M.O.V.S. M.O.V.S are metal oxide varsities. They function similar to a capacitor. They receive a charge that exceeds the normal energy level, and drain it or bleed it back to ground. Most surge suppressors are one time units. For a home cost about $ 300.00 to $ 900.00 for three-phase applications, they are significantly higher in price. Several units available use parallel technologies allowing multiple uses and higher life expectancy, however these units usually do not offer any insurance for your electronics or appliances, and they cost $ 2900.00 and up! Our surge suppressors have a limited warranty and cover from, 000.00 to $ 50,000.00 of insurance (depending on the model) to cover your electronics and appliances. In Texas thats a big plus, because most home owner insurance policies have a 1% deductable. Say your home is valued at $ 200,000.00 and you have a surge that destroys your plasma TV, and your sound system. your deductable, $ 2000.00 ! With our surge suppressors, that is picked up by the surge suppressor manufacturer!
