I have whole home surge protectors in my 2 panels due to the severity of lightning that we get in western Tennessee . I haven’t experienced any SQ downside in either of my 2 systems from WHSP nor the surge suppression built into my systems’ power conditioners
Any Downside To Installing A Whole Home Surge Protector?
I'm wondering if there is any downside to installing a whole home surge protector at the mains. I've found that plugging my amp into one reduces the sound quality, while plugging it into the wall makes me nervous.
A local electrician will install one at the mains that drain any hit through the ground for $375. This will protect everything in my condo.
