Surge protection services

Most surges are small and come from inside the home or from utility switching, and over time they wear down circuit boards in appliances. A panel-mounted surge protective device handles both the everyday surges and the big storm-driven ones. In Angel Fire we usually pair it with point-of-use protection for computers and televisions.

Local knowledge for Angel Fire, Colfax County

Angel Fire is in New Mexico's high country. Long heating seasons, snow, and winter storms put steady demand on electrical systems and make outages more than an inconvenience. Older adobe and territorial-style buildings in Colfax County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.

Most properties in Colfax County get their electricity from your local utility or rural electric cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

Our surge protection covers all of Angel Fire, along with neighboring Eagle Nest, Ute Park, Taos Ski Valley, and Cimarron.

Will a whole house surge protector stop a direct lightning strike?

Nothing fully protects against a direct strike to the house. A surge protector handles the far more common case: surges arriving on the power lines from nearby strikes and utility events.

How long does installation take?

Usually about an hour, with power off for only part of that time.

Do surge protectors wear out?

Yes. They absorb energy each time they work. Most have an indicator light that shows when the device needs replacing.
