Commercial Surge Suppression

Commercial surge planning should identify the electrical distribution and the equipment the business wants to protect. Start with critical loads, past damage and the operational impact of an outage.

Identify the business equipment and distribution

A surge-protection proposal defines electrical scope and equipment selection. It is not a guarantee against every outage, equipment failure or lightning-related loss.

Document critical loads and past problems

Building type, service/equipment documentation if available, affected systems and any insurer or equipment-supplier requirements.

Define protection locations and shutdown needs

Distribution layout, proposed protection locations, access, shutdown coordination and the selected equipment.

Common questions

What should a commercial surge proposal include?

It should identify the equipment and distribution being reviewed, the proposed protection locations and any access or shutdown coordination.

Will surge protection prevent every equipment loss?

No. A surge-protection installation is not a guarantee against every outage, lightning-related event or equipment failure.
