Surge protection device installation process:
1. Comprehensive consultation:
- Contact: Reach out via phone, email, or our website to discuss your surge protection needs.
- Information gathering: Provide details about your current electrical setup, including any sensitive equipment that needs protection.
2. On-site evaluation:
- Inspection: Our technicians conduct a thorough inspection of your electrical system to determine the best placement for surge protection devices. This includes identifying critical points in the system where protection is most needed, such as the main switchboard or individual circuits.
- Safety first: We prioritise safety and compliance with Australian standards, ensuring all installations are secure and effective.
3. Pricing and proposal:
We provide a detailed quote for the appropriate surge protection devices to be installed, outlining all costs involved in the implementation.
4. Installation:
- High-quality components: We use premium surge protection devices that meet regulatory standards. These devices typically include Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) to divert excess voltage safely to the ground. MOVs are semiconductor devices that change resistance based on voltage, absorbing excess energy and preventing it from reaching your appliances. They are designed to clamp the overvoltage, converting it into heat and thus protecting the connected equipment.
- Professional setup: Our skilled electricians install the surge protectors in the optimal locations, either at the main switchboard for whole-house protection or at individual outlets for specific devices. We ensure that all connections are secure and that the system is integrated properly with your existing electrical infrastructure.
- Surge resistance testing: We perform comprehensive testing to ensure the surge protection device is functioning correctly and provides the necessary level of protection.
5. Testing and customer satisfaction:
- Thorough testing: After installation, we conduct detailed tests to confirm the effectiveness of the surge protection device, ensuring it can handle potential surges.
- Customer instruction: We provide guidance on maintaining your surge protection system and ensuring its continued effectiveness.
- Follow-up: We ensure customer satisfaction by addressing any further inquiries or adjustments needed.
