The high cost of
surge damage
Home Electronics Protective Devices
Each year it’s estimated that surges can
cause $26 billion in lost time, repairs,
and equipment.
The impact of surge damage can range
from an immediate loss of electronics
and appliances to long-term cumulative
damage, shortening the life expectancy
of expensive home possessions.
Square D Home Electronics Protective Devices (HEPDs) are compact and affordable surge suppressors
designed for protection against surges that may overpower surge strips. HEPDs also provide protection for
home electronics not connected to surge strips.
Square D brand HEPDs are critical surge suppression elements for sensitive equipment and devices. When
mounted in residential load centers, they are ideal for providing surge suppression to important household
items that plug strips typically don’t protect. The HEPD36 provides 36kA of surge capacity and a three-year,
$30,000 limited warranty. The HEPD50 provides 50kA of surge capacity and a three-year, $50,000 limited
warranty. The HEPD80 provides 80kA of surge capacity and a five-year, $75,000 limited warranty.
