You may be surprised to learn that an estimated 70% of all Telephone System
faults, result from power surges, and transients induced onto your mains power
or telephone lines.
Most mains power surges result from nearby lightning strikes. In the summer
of 1995 there were an amazing 200,000 lightning strikes on the British Isles in
the space of just 2 days.
Modern electrical equipment such as Computers and Telephone systems, have
many sensitive components, which are very susceptible to power anomalies. A
single incident could, not only cause thousands of pounds of damage to your
computers and telephone system, but also could leave you without any telephone
service.
