It is impossible to predict when a sudden surge of electricity can come into the power system. There are some components in place that stop the flow and usually protect from damage occurring.

A sudden surge of electricity entering your power system is a pretty common situation. Unfortunately, not many people have enough protection, especially businesses.

What Causes A Power Surge?

Power surges have many causes and because of the nature of them, are always unexpected. That is why it is crucial to already have surge protection devices such as Transient Voltage Surge Suppression devices in place. There are some power boards that have in built surge protection, however this does not protect an entire building.
Here are a few main causes of a power surge:

Tripped Circuit Breakers - While a working circuit breaker will protect a power system, one that is damaged and not repaired is a risk.

Electrical Devices - High powered electrical devices have the potential to cause electricity to spike, especially when a motor starts up.

Faulty Wiring - Damaged wires will cause all sorts of problems throughout a power system, call us for repairs.

​Lightning - We all know that lighting is a massive bolt of electricity, if one strikes your building it will send a surge of power into the system.
