Details That Matter Most

The surge protector is installed directly at your main electrical panel, where it monitors incoming power 24/7. When a surge is detected—whether from a nearby lightning strike, a transformer failure, or a downed power line—the device diverts the excess voltage safely to ground, preventing it from traveling through your home's wiring.

Installation is quick and minimally invasive. The electrician opens your panel, mounts the surge device, and connects it to the main bus and grounding system. The entire process typically takes less than two hours, and your home is protected immediately. M. L. Sawyer Electrical uses fully licensed installation techniques and industry-rated surge devices designed to handle the high-energy events common along the North Carolina coast.

Once installed, the system requires no maintenance and works silently in the background. You'll sleep easier knowing your home is shielded from the unpredictable power surges that can strike without warning, especially during the stormy months that define life near Holden Beach and Supply.
