What is an electrical surge?

Electrical surges occur when the flow of electricity is interrupted and then started again. Surges can also occur when something sends electricity flowing back into the system. Surges can range from five or ten volts from you turning on your hair dryer to thousands of volts from lightning striking a transformer.

Did you know: More than half of household surges are internal and they happen dozens of times of day? Refrigerators and air conditioners are the biggest culprits, but even smaller devices such as hair dryers, power tools and vacuums can also cause problems.

Lightning strike electrical surges

There are normally two types of surges from a lightning strike that causes damage to your home or business.

Direct strikes: Where lightning strikes either a building or a cable that goes into the building and the energy from the strike finds its way to earth either through the building or through equipment inside the building. Although not very common these are the most damaging to your home or business.

Indirect strikes: Where lightning strikes an object and the energy from the strike induces into the cables within a certain distance from the strike point. The induced surge then travels down the cable finding its way to earth. This is more devastating as it isn't as obvious as a direct strike to the building.

Frequently Asked Questions about electrician

Why do I need a switchboard upgrade?

A switchboard upgrade ? Really? We know it sounds like a dull topic, and it may not be the most talked about discussion point at your next dinner party, however it is a really important point to consider for the safety of your household. With an increased reliance on having more appliances and technology in your home, older switchboards just weren’t designed to handle the workload that the average home expects of its electrical systems. The typical household doesn’t just have a fridge, a washing machine and a TV anymore - there are hundreds of different options that are becoming electrical household necessities.
