Your appliances are being attacked!
If you've ever noticed a flicker on your TV or your lights dim for a split second, chances are you've just experienced a power disruption.
Power disruptions attack our homes every day. In fact, Alliant Energy says that home electronics and appliances are hit by more than 2,000 power surges, every year.1 Some are so powerful that they can instantly damage computers, TVs or any other device that uses electricity.
Even the smallest power disruptions, the ones you don't even notice, can slowly destroy expensive appliances and electronics. This effect is called "electronic rust" and it can cost you thousands of dollars plus the inconvenience of replacing your equipment.
Did you know brownouts, blackouts and high line voltages destroy electronics too?
It's true, power surges are not the only cause of appliance damage. Both high and low line voltages can damage the power supplies inside electronics. Here's how...
Brownouts
- often recognizable by dimming lights - can occur during peak electrical demand, like hot summer days. Sometimes the power companies cannot sustain the demand and have to lower the voltage. This lower voltage can damage electronics!
Blackouts
- this occurs when power is lost completely. The danger is when the power returns. The power often returns with a sudden surge of electricity, more than many appliances are designed to handle. Damage is often caused.
High line voltages
- often recognizable by increased light brightness (opposite to brownout)- often occur from poor line regulation and dynamic loads. The higher voltages increase power to appliances and can destroy them.
Power disruptions originate both outside and inside your home.
You may be more familiar with power disruptions from sources outside your home including lightning, ice and wind storms, vehicle accidents involving power poles and power lines, neighbors using power tool and more.
But, did you know that many power problems come from inside your home! For example, turning on a large appliance, like a clothes dryer or air conditioner, can generate power disruptions. Additional causes include faulty or loose electrical wiring and circuit breakers, overloaded circuits, poorly grounded wall outlets or appliances and more.
Without proper protection, these disruptions travel through your wiring and can damage the delicate components of your electronic equipment.
SafePlug receptacles could save you from $1000's in electronics damage!
SafePlug receptacles provide electronics protection from power disruptions inside and outside your home.
So you don't have to worry about damage from...
common surges*
brown-outs
black-outs and
high line voltages
SafePlug receptacles use patented Power Fault Circuit Interrupter (PFCI) technology to continuously monitor your homes electrical system for bad power. That's protection 24 hours a day 7 days a week!
When a SafePlug receptacle detects a disruption it disconnects the power, protecting your electronics from damage. Multiple SafePlug receptacles can work together to create a web of protection for your entire house.
Plus, SafePlug receptacles safely return power to your electronics after power has stabilized. To avoid damage from inrush current after a blackout or brownout SafePlug receptacles power on your appliances at random intervals (between 15-30 seconds). Now that's protection!

SafePlug receptacles install easily and in less than 2 minutes! For more information on SafePlug receptacle protection and it's many conveniences click here.
*An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) offers the best power quality solution for an electronic device, especially a computer. The UPS acts like a miniature power generator and creates clean power at the correct voltage. If the input power is too low, it generates the power from an internal battery. We strongly recommend UPS usage with computers. A UPS delivers clean power for several minutes after a blackout. A computer needs this extra time for proper shut down.
