The High Cost of Surge Damage

Utility industry experts estimate that problems resulting from transient voltage surges cost U.S. companies a stunning $26 billion annually. That figure not only includes the high price of direct damage to electrical distribution systems, electronic equipment, software and tools, but also the crippling cost of loss of productivity. Facility downtime, lost data, lost orders and the disruption of critical processes can seriously reduce productivity. This means that minimizing the risk of damage from electrical surges is an absolute priority for companies of all types, all across the globe.
