Whole House Surge Protection Services
A power surge can destroy your HVAC system, your appliances, and anything else plugged in the moment it hits, and it often happens without warning. BH3 Industries installs whole house surge protection for homes and businesses, licensed under TECL 31767. A panel-mounted Type 2 surge protective device sits at your electrical panel and blocks transient voltage before it reaches your circuits, unlike a point-of-use Type 3 protector that only covers whatever's plugged into it. The National Electrical Code now requires surge protection on new and replaced panels serving dwelling units under NEC 230.67, and a properly rated device with the right joule and kA rating makes the difference between a surge that stops at your panel and one that reaches your electronics and damages them for good, from your refrigerator to your home's networking equipment.
Residential Surge Protection
Residential surge protection matters most in homes with central air conditioning, well pumps, home theater systems, or any property that's taken a lightning strike or grid surge before. Older homes without a panel-mounted SPD are especially exposed, since every appliance and outlet is a potential entry point for a transient voltage spike. Electrical surge protection isn't just about a single lightning strike either, most surges come from the utility grid itself, from things like large motors cycling on and off or storm-related grid switching. BH3 Industries sizes every surge protective device to your panel's amperage and your property's actual electrical load, not a one-size-fits-all rating.
What Real Surge Protection Looks Like?
The first question is whether a company installs a panel-mounted Type 2 device or just sells point-of-use power strips branded as surge protection, since those two things are not the same. BH3 Industries holds TECL 31767 and completes every surge protection installation to National Electrical Code standards, including proper grounding and bonding at the panel. Ask what joule rating and kA surge current rating the device carries, since a low-rated unit can absorb one surge and then need replacing. A company that can explain the difference between Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 protection, and where each one goes, is one that actually understands the equipment it installs.
