111: Protect Your Home from Electrical Surges
b'
Why should you care about electrical surges?
\\n\\xa0
\\nOkay, maybe I should rephrase this question: how much would it cost to replace your refrigerator or television?
\\n\\xa0
\\nQuite a bit of dinero, right.
\\n\\xa0
\\nWhat can you do to protect against surges in electricity that ruin electrical devices?
\\n\\xa0
\\n1. Add a surge protector at your electrical meter outside
\\n2. Add a surge protector at your electrical panel\\u2026this can cost about $200 but is worth it
\\n3. Add surge protector outlets where your most important electronics are plugged into the wall
