BR Type Surge for Eaton Panels 

The surge breaker is designed to provide complete home surge protection for sensitive electronics and appliances from the damaging effects of surges. In addition to surge protection, the surge breaker is a functional 2-pole thermal magnetic breaker providing protection for overloads and short circuits. The combination of circuit protection and surge protection provides flexibility and space savings in the loadcenter.

• Protects electronics and appliances: Surge protectors defend against sudden voltage spikes that can damage or destroy expensive electronics like computers, TVs, and refrigerators. A whole-home system protects everything, including hardwired items like HVAC systems.
• Extends the life of devices: Even small, frequent surges can slowly degrade electronics. A surge protector maintains consistent voltage, which can prolong the life of your appliances and devices.
• Enhances home safety: High voltage can cause wiring to overheat, leading to electrical fires. Surge protectors minimize this risk by diverting excess voltage and can prevent short circuits, sparks, or other hazards.
• Provides peace of mind: Knowing your home and valuable electronics are protected from unexpected power surges offers a sense of security, especially during thunderstorms or grid issues.
• Saves money over time: The upfront cost of a surge protector is less than the cost of repairing or replacing damaged electronics and can prevent costly repairs to your home's wiring.
• Safeguards the electrical system: A surge protector shields your home's wiring, outlets, and switches from damaging voltage spikes, which helps maintain the integrity of your home's electrical infrastructure. 

Despite the following statistics, surge protection is one of the most overlooked safeguards....when installing a panel for your home or office.
