Has anyone installed Surge Protection at AC panel?


I am finishing a new room and I would like to know the exact brand and model name of a surge protection device that installs directly to AC wiring before it comes in your home. Are they special breakers or a complete special unit? I will have a dedicated 50 amp panel just outside the room. I want to install such a protection device because I plan on connecting some of my components directly to the wall receptacle. Thanks for advice and help.

like bob, i unplug (my hydra) during wacky weather and when i leave town, and when i have wacky friends over.

unpluging is the only truly secure method to avoid damage from ligtning.

sounds like a safe-sex ad.
