Whole-Home Surge Protector Installation in Charlotte, NC

Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte branch (Matthews) supplied and installed a whole-home surge protector at the main electrical panel for homeowner Stephanie McCleary in Charlotte, NC. The project was completed by our technician Lucas Rios on February 2, 2024 as part of our Panels & Service Upgrades and Whole-House Surge Protection services.

What We Installed

We installed a whole-house surge protective device at the home’s main panel. Think of this device like an airbag for your electrical system: when sudden voltage spikes occur, the protector safely diverts excess energy to ground before it can reach sensitive circuits and equipment.

Main-panel placement: Protection begins at the source of power distribution for the entire home.
3-year warranty: The installed surge protector is backed by a 3-year warranty.
Appliance coverage: Comes with up to $25,000 in coverage on connected home appliances in the unlikely event of device failure.
