Power surges occur in a fraction of a second but can instantly affect your electronic appliances. Lightning strikes, for instance, can send massive amounts of electricity through your home’s system, causing instantaneous damage. Similarly, faulty or outdated wiring may trigger surges unexpectedly, affecting devices connected to the circuit. Even routine actions, such as cycling power-hungry appliances like fridges or air conditioners, can generate minor power fluctuations that cumulatively impact electronic performance over time.
