Your Local Electrician in Mt. Druitt Wants You to Know How to Avoid Power Surges

For some, it’s a frequent occurrence, a drastic spike in electrical current we commonly call a power surge. It’s dangerous, both to yourself and to your expensive electronics. Such surges are brief (many only fractions of a second), but could lead to damage, so it’s important to know what causes them, and how you can minimise the amount of havoc they cause when they happen. Your local electrician in Mt. Druitt, Paul’s Electrical Services, is committed to keeping you abreast of this important safety information.

What causes these surges in energy? Most often, it’s through using too much electricity at once. When you do things like having all of your gadgets on full blast all day or plug power strips into power strips that are plugged into other power strips, you are setting yourself up for a big-time power surge that could lead to disastrous results.

Observing some of the most basic electrical safety rules, like not using power strips that lack safety measures, using surge-protection appliances, keeping electronics away from sources of water, and having any damaged or old wiring replaced by a professional.
