What Is A Power Surge And What Causes Them?

As the name implies, a surge is a sudden increase in power in your home’s electrical system. While these spikes happen in the blink of an eye and don’t last for more than a second, the intense increase in power causes significant damage to appliances and electronics and can even cause electrical fires. A surge protector’s job is to divert the excess energy to grounding wires before going through to home electronics and appliances.

Common causes for power surges include:

Lightning storms

Power outages

Tripped circuit breakers

Outdated wiring

High-powered appliances

Learn More About Home Surge Protection

Electrical Damage Protection

Power surges follow the path of wires to outlets and will continue into any item that’s plugged into them. These can cause electrical fires that result in excessive damage to the whole house.

Electronic Damage Protection

All electronics and appliances plugged into an outlet are at risk of harm if your home is not adequately protected. Power surges have the strength to completely damage an appliance or electronic device beyond repair.

Layered Protection

Our service offers safeguards at two points. Surge protection in the electrical panel diverts power surges caused by a source outside the home and redirects it to the ground. Our layered security also offers protection at the outlet for any surge generated within the walls of your house.

Safeguarding Against In-Home Power Surges

While you may consider an outside source, such as a lightning storm, the biggest danger for power surges, the extra layer of protection at the outlets is critical in protecting your home. In-home surges are responsible for shortening the lifespan of valuable electronics, costing homeowners in replacement purchases.

Brian and the team at chesapeake electric went above and beyond from start to finish. I lost power in certain parts of my living room and kitchen, including the ceiling light and fan and of course the outlet that controls my router / modem for internet 🙃 as soon as I called chesapeake electric I was greeted with friendly customer service who understood my urgency and sent me one of the best as soon as Brian was selected for the call he contacted me immediately with an ETA and to touch base. my man listened to a quick story of what caused the issue and he quickly calmed me down upon his arrival he was super polite, respectful, knowledgeable, and most importantly helpful. he quickly identified the issue and got to work while explaining what caused the problem on the inside I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you again Brian!

Chesapeake Electric sent a superb Master Electrician and technicians on a full rewiring of our old home. A few weeks later we had others come out to do additional work. Jimmy, Terry, and Kevin, all Master Electricians, and Shannon and Trevor the technicians, were friendly and hard-working, often from morning until late afternoon. We can say many wonderful things about each of them, but this would take too long to write! Please know Chesapeake Electric hires excellent people to work for them; knowledgeable, focused, respectful, and polite. We highly recommend them for small and very large jobs. We don't think you'll be disappointed. Thanks Chesapeake Electric!

A few weeks ago (it may be longer) the circuit breaker in our panel box tripped for the well pump. Me, being the master of everything technical, pumped my chest out after I reset said breaker and the water started flowing once again! (I handled that disaster!) Well (no pun intended) after a few more weeks of having to rest the same breaker in order to have water access we called a well company. Long story short, we needed a new well for $20,000. So now my mastery of the "everything technical" was demolished. The motor was bad and there was "water intrusion" in our system. Another week passed of more "flipping the switch" until last night. The breaker refused to reset. UH OH... So I went online and booked an appointment with Chesapeake Electric. (Very easy process by the way even though I am very technical!!!) They called me this morning to confirm said appointment. And this afternoon a very nice yet professional and very knowledgable gentleman arrived out my house. Christian has entered the chat! I explained the situation and he assured me he would look at all possibilities. Well. Christian is an electrical magician! Not only did he go under the house and find A BURNED ELECTRICAL WIRE that the well company didn't see (Or did and didn't want to mention it) but he repaired the line for a fraction of a new well and now we have water and the breaker HAS NOT broken!! Now, Christian went over all of the options I could have chosen Very thoroughly and patiently (you know, because of my strong technical skills and all!) I chose the path of least resistance JUST IN CASE it did not fix the issue completely. Well, it did. Christian and Chesapeake Electric saved us over $20,000.00 And we will be using Chesapeake Electric for all things electrical in the future! SOOOO.. All of that being said: Thank you to Jackie, Katie and Kevin. And thank you again to Christian!!! You all are fantastic. Thank you, Chesapeake Electric. It was an absolute pleasure to work with you all from start to..... We arent finished working with you so its just.. so long for now! Sincerely- Ben, Julie and Family

Major electrical issues after a storm. But the team from Chesapeake was incredible from start to finish. They kept me informed and highlighted small problems to resolve before they could become larger issues. They also worked very well with the other repair teams that were onsite, as the damage involved appliances and HVAC as well. I’d definitely use them again.
