Protection Equipment

Living in the mountains with cliffs either side of us, gives us magnificent views and 'clean' air but means our electricity supply has a number of problems. The most obvious problem is that we can lose mains power completely from minutes to hours or days at various times of the year. A second problem is that we get fluctuations in mains voltage; the worst example of this is when lights dim or equipment stops working because of low mains voltage. The third problem is that we regularly get surges. If our soil has iron in it; our homes and equipment can be particularly susceptible to destructive surges like lightning strikes.

Surges and spikes can affect any electrical equipment like computers, printers, stereos, televisions or DVD players. The telephone line is much more likely to be a source of destructive surges than mains as mains lines have inherent protection. Surges can damage connected computers and other equipment. Mains through the power circuit and telephone line via ethernet cables attached to ADSL/VDSL modems.
