Surge Protector Installation

The electricians in our network install whole-home surge protectors at your main panel, add point-of-use units for sensitive equipment, verify grounding and bonding, and test the system before they leave. If your panel needs adjustments to support the device, they handle that too.

Whole-home surge protection wires directly into your main panel, which means working around live service conductors and getting the grounding exactly right. That is licensed-electrician territory, and a pro guarantees the device is installed safely, performs as intended, and meets code.

Most homeowners spend between $250 and $700 for a whole-home surge protector installed, depending on the device rating, your panel's condition, and whether grounding upgrades are needed. Adding point-of-use protection at key circuits raises that range. Your electrician confirms the price after looking at your panel.
