Can I install a whole house surge protector myself safely?

No. Whole-house surge protectors should be installed by a licensed electrician. The work occurs inside your main electrical panel, and improper wiring can create shock hazards or damage equipment. A pro will size the device to your service, connect it to the correct breaker and grounding, and test operation. We install and verify whole-home surge protection for homes in Roanoke, Cave Spring, and Christiansburg.
