Grounding & Surge Protection

Reliable Grounding & Surge Protection for Homes & Businesses in Phoenix

From unpredictable lightning strikes to internal power surges caused by large appliances, electrical surges are a hidden threat to your home or business. Poor grounding and lack of surge protection can destroy expensive electronics, damage appliances, and create dangerous fire risks. Whether you’re protecting your family or safeguarding sensitive commercial equipment, investing in grounding and surge protection is critical for system stability and long-term safety.
“Proper grounding and surge protection can mean the difference between a stable system and thousands of dollars in damage. It’s one of the smartest and most affordable ways to protect everything connected to your electrical system.” — David Gomez, Owner, Extra Electrical Inc.

How Grounding & Surge Protection Supports Total System Health

Every electrical system depends on a reliable ground. Without it, excess voltage from lightning, faulty wiring, or utility spikes has nowhere safe to go—putting your property, appliances, and safety at risk. Surge protection devices (SPDs), installed at the panel or device level, act as the first line of defense by diverting voltage away from sensitive components. Together, these two systems form the foundation of a safe and healthy electrical infrastructure.

Grounding & Surge Protection FAQs

What causes power surges?
Power surges can result from lightning strikes, utility grid issues, or internal sources like large appliances cycling on and off.
What’s the difference between grounding and surge protection?
Grounding safely redirects excess electricity into the earth, while surge protection blocks or diverts spikes away from your devices and wiring.
Do I need whole-house surge protection if I use power strips?
Yes. Power strips offer minimal protection. Whole-house SPDs protect all circuits and appliances, not just what's plugged into a strip.
Is grounding required by code in Arizona?
Yes. All systems must meet NEC and local codes. We inspect and upgrade outdated or improperly grounded systems to ensure compliance.
