Power strips protect one outlet. A surge that comes in on the service line hits every circuit in the house at once, and the first things to die are the control boards in the furnace, the fridge and the dishwasher. AAA Electric installs whole house surge protection at the panel in Richmond, VA in about an hour.

We mount a type 2 surge protective device on a dedicated two pole breaker as close to the main as possible, which is where it works best. Most units have an indicator light so you know when it has taken a hit and needs replacing.

Surge Protector Installation FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Surge Protector Installation

Questions we hear most often about Surge Protector Installation in Richmond, VA.

Talk to a real person
Do I need a permit for an electrical panel upgrade?
Yes, almost everywhere in the country. We pull it, schedule the inspection and coordinate the utility shutoff and reconnect. A panel change without a permit can void your insurance and will show up on a home inspection when you sell.
My breaker keeps tripping. Do I need a new breaker or a new panel?
It depends on why it trips. An overloaded circuit needs a second circuit, not a bigger breaker. A worn breaker gets replaced with the correct listed part. If the panel is a Federal Pacific, Zinsco or Sylvania model, or it has no spaces left, we will talk about replacement.
Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
Aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s and early 1970s is a known fire risk at the connections, not in the wire itself. It can be made safe with AlumiConn or COPALUM pigtails at every device, or replaced with copper. We will inspect and price both options.
Do you handle emergency calls at night and on weekends?
Yes. The line at (877) 351-4541 is answered 24 hours a day. Loss of power to part of the house, sparking, a warm panel or a tripped main that will not reset are the calls we treat as emergencies.
What does an electrical inspection cover?
The service entrance, panel, grounding and bonding, GFCI and AFCI coverage, a sample of outlets and switches, smoke detectors and any wiring visible in the attic, basement and garage. You get a written report ranked by risk, useful before buying an older home or when your insurer asks for one.
