Generator Surge Protection
Power outages can create huge problems. When your backup generator kicks in they often send a surge of power into your home that is equal to its max output, this is call the starting power or peak power.
Even though generators are the power source and should be well regulated the varying loads can create fluctuations in output as demand changes. Generator specific surge protectors can withstand this constant change and prevent any overvoltage situation from becoming dangerous. During a power failure most surge damage goes unseen until after grid power is restored. Protecting your appliances during this transition time is critical to. By investing in surge protection for your generator you will be safe and ready for then the power returns.
Automatic transfer switches need protection as well. Due to their design, they can easily be damaged by switching power surges since most are designed using magnetic activated contacts and any noise can create chatter causing damage to switching device.
