Can lightning cause electrical problems?

A direct lightning strike will cause significant damage to electrical and nonelectrical items in the home. In many instances, this will start a fire, often in the wiring within the walls or the attic. Cities and utilities have different standards so contact JMC Electric to make sure your up to standards. JMC Electric recommends your grounding systems be check and additional grounding to be done if not up to current standards, as well as adding a whole home surge protector for voltage changes and issues to be stopped and trapped at the service equipment before damage is done inside the home. JMC Electric offers a Whole home surge protector with a 5 year/$75,000 equipment warranty for $799.95 installed. Ask about discounts if having a Electrical Service Upgrade done for additional savings!
