  [ ![Why do you need Whole–House Surge Protection?](https://allproelectricalandac.com/components/com_rsblog/assets/images/blog/145.jpg?nocache=6a29cdae7280d) ](https://allproelectricalandac.com/blog/145-whole-house-surge-protection)

 ## Whole-house surge protection is an investment in the safety and longevity of your home’s electrical system and the devices connected to it.

While point-of-use surge protectors offer some level of protection for the devices plugged into them, they can't match the comprehensive coverage provided by whole-house surge protection.

Individual surge protectors only safeguard connected devices, but whole-house surge protection covers all your electronics and motor-driven appliances, regardless of whether they're plugged into a point-of-use surge protector.

Whole-house surge protectors are installed directly into your electrical panel, enabling them to respond instantly to excess voltage before it reaches your outlets.
