Total Power Surge Protection

If you’ve got appliances, a computer and electronics—and who doesn’t these days?—you can’t afford not to safeguard them with whole-house power surge protection. Power SurgesA power surge happens in milliseconds — a thousandth of the time it takes you to blink your eyes. Maybe you see the lights dim or flicker, or your computer locks up for no apparent reason. Maybe you don’t notice anything at all. But that little spike in the current flowing through the wires of your house can have big consequences. It can instantly destroy your electronics and appliances or wear our motors prematurely.   How to protect your equipment from power surgesDo you spend time running around the house during a lightning storm unplugging everything in sight because you don’t want to lose an appliance? Or do you just do nothing and rely on your appliance warranty or homeowner’s insurance policy to cover any surge losses that may occur?

Now there is another option. You do none of these; instead, you protect your investments in appliances and electronics by preventing surge damage with the EMS unit… a Whole House Power Surge Protector.

About the EMS unit
The EMS unit is available in both single and 3 phase boxes, for both residential and commercial buildings. In commercial applications, the company has dozens of models readily available or will build a custom box to optimize the performance and savings for the businesses electrical requirement.

How the Power Surge Protector works
Inductive loads such as electric motors, pumps and compressors kick back unusable energy into the power system. This unusable energy materializes as heat build-up in appliances, noise on transistor radios and cordless phones, etc.

The EMS unit contains capacitors that absorb this unusable energy and recycle it as usable electricity that can be used by electrical appliances - thereby reducing your energy demand from your power company.

The EMS unit is wired by our electrician directly into the electrical panel and works seamlessly in the background providing power surge protection throughout the entire home/building. Once installed, you never need to think about it again. From the second it is switched on, appliances and electronics are protected and less electricity will be consumed.

What causes power surges
Most people worry about a power surge being caused by something outside of the house, like a lightning strike. While lightning is the most dangerous cause of surges, it’s far from the most common.

Since power surges don’t present a fire hazard, protective devices aren’t required by building codes or homeowner’s insurance carriers. But the National Fire Protection Association  recommends them. This lack of required protection results in, as the State Farm Insurance Company notes on their web site, " ...power surges are responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars of property damage every year ... Over time, surges can also cause cumulative damage to your property, incrementally decreasing the lifespan of televisions, computers, stereo equipment, and anything else plugged into the wall."

The EMS units are manufactured in the US and are UL, CSA and CE approved for worldwide distribution. The EMS unit is being sold in over 20 countries around the world. Panama distribution is handled by Panama A/V, located in the province of Cocle, Panama and dealers are welcome to inquire about dealerships in their respective areas.

The good news is that protection is readily available from Panama A/V. Call them today 6439-5662 and start protecting your appliances and electronics now.
