How A Power Surge Happens in the Winter
A power surge is just as it sounds: a sudden surge of electrical power.

The Costs of a Power Surge
A sudden spike in voltage can overheat wires, potentially causing an electrical fire. Even smaller power surges can be costly as they can fry your electrical devices, equipment, and appliances. As you can imagine, the cost of repairing or replacing those computers, smart phones, or appliances can easily run in the thousands of dollars. It should come as no surprise that the average insurance claim for power surge and related damage is over $4,000. Of course, there is also the inconvenience of having to go without those electronics until repaired or replaced.
