Cable surge protection works the same way that typical whole-home surge protection works, but is installed inside your cable box typically located on the outside of your house. Cable boxes and/or internet routers contain a lot of electricity that lightning is strongly drawn to. If you have a cable television or internet service, you should absolutely have a cable surge protector. If lightning hits your cable box, it will travel through any other devices connected to it and destroy them entirely. If you’re thinking about adding surge protection to your cable box, but aren’t sure whether or not it’s right for you, call (727) 591-6664 to speak with an expert electrician now!
