Even the most basic custom installations are not exempt from problems related to power and power quality. Fridges, air-conditioners or something as simple as turning a switch can all have an effect.

Power surges are the most common source of damage to electrical devices, and most power utilities recommend power-protective devices for sensitive electrical appliances.

Damage from spikes or surges can range from blowing a $2 fuse to ‘cooking’ a component beyond repair. But power protection and filtration can minimise the cost of repairs or eliminate the problem entirely.

There is a range of products available that can be adopted to tackle the many issues that power and power quality create in an installation, including power filters or surge-protecting and filtered power boards.
