⚡️ Enhanced Protection: Intermatic IG1200RC3 Surge Protector in Sleek Gray Finish Review

Yes, most of my electronics are individually protected with surge protection bars, but really. much meaning. The spring, summer and winter storms are accompanied by lightning and we are at the end of the rural power grid, or should I say antenna, caused by the storm. We needed it badly while living in Texas. Now that we live in Tennessee, this will be the first thing we will install in any future home.

Perfect for protecting my home which is often struck by lightning here in Central Florida. Have an electrician install it! Incorrect installation is dangerous.

This SPD, a surge protector, has the right properties to mitigate normal surges that occur at the input of the power supply. You can pay more for lower rated devices on the market, or you can pay a lot more for slightly higher rated SPDs. but if the overvoltage can be suppressed then it will do all that is to be expected - no SPD will prevent a direct lightning strike!

We were lucky: not a single piece of high-tech electronics was lost! After installing the previous product in our home: Will! No more burnt out lightbulbs! After moving into our new home, I immediately ordered and installed this surge protector for my whole house. It sits quietly to the right of our switch panel…

If you live in the south, spring and summer thunderstorms are common. After a very tight and very violent, we realized that our pool equipment was not working properly. Called our pool equipment guarantee and they came out to look. The panel and pump appear to have been electrocuted. We didn't have a strike directly on our property or anywhere nearby that we could detect, but agreed that it appeared to be caused by a lightning strike. Even though the company replaced the devices, they…
