Power surges — whether from the grid, lightning, or a fault elsewhere in the property — can silently damage smart TVs, appliances, and home automation systems. Modern wiring regulations increasingly require surge protection as standard, and RCDs remain your first line of defence against electric shock.
Why This Matters
- Sensitive electronics (smart hubs, TVs, appliances) are vulnerable to surges
- Older boards often lack RCD protection on every circuit
- Surge protection is now recommended — and in some cases required — under BS 7671
- A single surge event can damage multiple devices at once
