Whole-Home Surge Protection & Lightning Defense
In Fort Lauderdale, whole-home surge protective devices (SPDs) are now mandatory under NEC 230.67 for all residential service upgrades. These devices shield sensitive electronics, HVAC systems, and appliances from South Florida’s high lightning density and external grid spikes.
Article 242 requires SPDs for all new residential service equipment.
Protects smart fridges, LED lighting, and HVAC compressors.
Many Florida carriers offer discounts for verified SPD installations.
