When you buy traditional surge protectors, you get just one line of defense. Our surge protection service offers three lines of defense , plus a few extra assurances you won't find with other products. Each year, up to 600,000 lightning strikes are reported in our service area. Lightning strikes typically occur more than 200 days each year. Lightning occurs each month of the year, but strikes most often from May through August.
Lightning can flow through power lines as well as phone, cable and electrical wires.
