This is the second one I have installed as I just moved into a new home. This is an improved version so they say. Never had any surge damage before amd hopefully won't now. The flush mount kits were out of stock so I improvised. Installed the unit inside the panel and provided a view window for the led indicator. Used a plastic yellow lens to cover the hole. If the kit were in stock it was close to $45.00 which is allot for a mounting plate. I used a simpson 3x7 tie plate to mount inside the panel.

Installed this product but was a little bummed with the result. For a LONG time people have complained about the LED's being very dim! I though "Surely by now this has been fixed since it is a respected brand: Square D". However either this is OLD inventory OR they never fixed the product! I live in Arizona where the sun is BRIGHT! The only time to see if these devices are working is at night. I cannot see them lit up in the day time even when I try shielding them from sunlight with my hand.

Over the last couple or three years, I have had a WI FI card and one , possibly two PCs rendered inoperable, through lightning strikes . Ordinary plug-in surge protects are not enough without strong protection between the house and the mains grid. This device carries a very substantial warranty, and has a current protection rating of 80,000 amps. While the warranty might or might not provide cover outside of the US, this doesn't worry me - as I think that the makers of this device have a lot of confidence in their product to offer 5 year / $75,000 cover. Bear in mind that in this country (Australia), as probably in most places, an Electrician is required to fit the device, although clear instructions and basic wiring diagrams for both 240V single phase and 440V three phase installation are provided. My dwelling is a steel framed transportable, with steel footings into the ground; this acts a bit like a Faraday cage, when lightning strikes the house ... the scorch marks and little areas of molten galvanizing on the iron roof cladding are clear evidence of a direct strike! The "Faraday cage" house frame is safe protection - but using any water plumbing fittings or land line telephones should be seriously avoided during a storm.Read full review

Just had a surge one week after I installed it. A woodpecker decided to "sound off" on the pole transformer used to power my house. He jumped the hot 4KV line to ground and produced a huge arc knocking out the power to the whole neighborhood. None of the electrical equipment in my home was hurt. Others in the neighborhood lost a lot of electronic equipment. This is by far the best investment ever! My recommendation....BUY ONE!

With weather related and unpredictable power outages, clean electrical power reliability is questionable living out here in a rural community. The threat of damage to household electronics and appliances from power surges is a constant concern. Now that I've installed the Square D whole house surge protector, I can now rest easy knowing this electrical safeguard is in place.
