Protecting Your Home’s Electrical System From Power Surges This Winter
Power surges pose a serious risk to your home any time of year. However, that risk climbs even higher during the winter months due to increased demand for heating, lighting, and more. Luckily, there are some simple steps you can take to prevent winter power surges in Buffalo Grove.
Use Surge Protectors
One of the most severe risks concerning power surges is the damage they can do to sensitive electronics. While a minor surge might not significantly harm appliances like fridges or traditional lighting, the current can scramble delicate circuitry and leave you in need of a replacement.
Modern electronics should be plugged into a surge protector to prevent that damage. Keep in mind that this doesn’t just mean TVs and computers. If you have modern appliances, chances are they contain several computer components as well.
Avoid Overloading Circuits
There are plenty of extra devices to plug into your outlets during the winter months. Space heaters, Christmas lights, and other seasonal additions can greatly increase the demand on your home’s electrical system. Plugging too much into outlets on the same circuit could be a recipe for disaster.
Your home’s electrical system contains individual circuits that can only carry so much current. Overloading them will cause the breaker to trip, but you could still do lasting damage. Avoid plugging too much into the same outlet, and remember that multiple outlets in the same room are likely on the same circuit.
Upgrade Your Home’s Electrical Panel
If you have an older home, have made recent renovations, or have upgraded your HVAC system, it’s somewhat likely that your home's electrical panel can’t handle your demand anymore. If you’re dealing with issues like frequent breaker trips, you should have an expert take a look to see if it's time for an upgrade.
