How Whole-Home Surge Protection Works

Whole-home surge protection defends your home’s electrical system from sudden voltage spikes—whether they come from lightning, utility grid switching, or appliance cycling. These devices are installed directly into your main electrical panel, acting as the first line of defense for everything connected to your home’s wiring.

When a power surge occurs, the surge protector senses the excess voltage and diverts it safely to the ground before it can damage your electronics, appliances, HVAC system, or EV charger. Unlike plug-in strips, which only protect individual devices, whole-home surge protectors safeguard every circuit in your home simultaneously, delivering full-coverage protection where it matters most.

Goose Electric installs surge protection systems that meet NEC 230.67 code requirements and are able to handle repeated surges without degrading. Whether you’re protecting a newly built home or retrofitting an older property in Manteca, we ensure every install is clean, code-compliant, and future-ready.

Hear from Customers Who Called Goose

Goose electric, I highly recommend their services. Gustavo and Luis 100% PG&E was not able to restore the power to my home due to outdated stuff and safety reasons. In order to restore my services upgrades are necessary. I called Goose Electric and explained my situation. Gustavo, saw the urgency in our situation. He took our situation seriously. I have medications that need’s refrigeration and machines that need to be powered throughout the day for medical reasons. Gustavo, rushed the services in everything! Including himself, permits, and Inspections until the job was done restoring power ASAP! He quoted me on the spot with a walk through to where he would be running pipe and relocating the new panel and an idea of materials needed to do the job. I respect the man and wish him well with his business. Highly recommended. Goose Electric.

Gus and Luis installed a Tesla EV Charger and Tesla Powershare Gateway at my home. I had a 200 Amp Panel with 2 x 100 Amp Breakers that fed 2 Sub-panels. They came up with a creative way to allow the Vehicle to Home Gateway to be used to feed both Sub-panels. Professional installation, highly recommended. Great job on the entire installation!

George K.

Great communication – a pleasure to work with. Will contact again for the next project!

Forrest T.

I have used Goose Electric a few times. I highly recommend. Excellent service. Thank you!

Stefanie P

Gus did a great job installing an EV charger for my home. He came out and determined I needed a somewhat obsolete breaker due to the age of my house. He was able to have it within days and came back the next day for the installation. The installation was done cleanly and professionally. I would definitely recommend Gus and his crew.

Whole-Home Surge Protector Services FAQs

What Does a Whole-Home Surge Protector Actually Do?

A whole-home surge protector is designed to guard your entire electrical system against sudden voltage spikes. It’s hardwired into your main panel and acts like a pressure release valve for your home’s electricity, rerouting dangerous surges away from your outlets, appliances, and sensitive electronics.

Unlike point-of-use protectors like power strips, a panel-mounted surge protector works at the source, shielding every connected circuit. In areas like Manteca, where grid fluctuations or extreme weather can trigger unexpected surges, it’s a smart way to protect what powers your home.

What Are the Signs That I Need Surge Protection in My Manteca Home?

Many homeowners don’t realize they need protection until it’s too late. Here are common warning signs and risk factors that suggest it’s time to install a whole-house surge protector:

Frequent Breaker Trips: Especially during storms or when large appliances turn on
Burned-Out Appliances: TVs, fridges, or computers failing prematurely
Visible Damage to Plugs or Outlets: Such as burn marks or melted plastic
A History of Brownouts or Utility Issues: PG&E or power grid inconsistencies in your area
Adding Sensitive Equipment: Including EV chargers, smart home systems, or medical devices

If any of these apply to your household, surge protection isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Does a Surge Protector Need Maintenance or Replacement Over Time?

Yes—surge protectors don’t last forever. Most systems are rated for a finite number of joules (the unit of energy they can safely absorb). After enough small or large surges, that protection gradually wears down, even if you don’t notice it.

At Goose Electric, we recommend checking your surge protection status during your regular electrical inspections. If needed, we’ll replace worn or outdated units with newer, more efficient models that meet today’s standards.

Is Whole-House Surge Protection Worth the Investment?

Absolutely. When you factor in the cost of replacing a fridge, HVAC system, TV, or computer—let alone all of them after a major surge—the small one-time installation cost quickly pays for itself.

Even better? Most surge protectors are built to handle dozens of minor spikes and keep your system protected around the clock. For Manteca homeowners with EV chargers or sensitive electronics, surge protection offers long-term peace of mind.

How Is a Whole-Home Surge Protector Installed?

The process involves hardwiring the surge protector directly into your electrical panel—something that should only be handled by a licensed electrician. Here’s how Goose Electric does it:

Step 1: We evaluate your panel’s layout and capacity
Step 2: Install a UL-listed surge protection device at the main service panel
Step 3: Confirm proper grounding and code compliance
Step 4: Test for proper diversion and function
Step 5: Walk you through what to expect and when to replace it

The entire process usually takes less than a few hours, and once installed, protection is active 24/7.
