Texas’s Unique Power Surge Risks

Texas experiences some of the most severe electrical weather in the nation, with frequent thunderstorms, tornadoes, and extreme temperature fluctuations that create ideal conditions for damaging power surges. Lightning strikes within miles of your home can send massive voltage spikes through utility lines, causing surges that travel directly into your electrical system and overwhelm the delicate circuits in modern electronics. Even when lightning doesn't strike your property directly, the electromagnetic pulse from nearby strikes can induce dangerous voltages in electrical wiring and utility infrastructure.

Beyond weather-related surges, Texas's rapidly growing population and aging electrical grid create additional surge risks that many homeowners don't consider. Utility companies regularly switch large electrical loads to balance supply and demand, and these switching operations can generate significant voltage fluctuations that propagate through neighborhood electrical systems. During extreme weather events, power companies may implement rolling blackouts or emergency grid switching that causes repeated voltage spikes as service is restored. Additionally, Texas's hot climate forces air conditioning systems to cycle frequently, and large motors starting and stopping can create internal surges within your home's electrical system. Manufacturing and industrial facilities throughout Texas also contribute to grid instability, creating voltage variations that can affect residential electrical service and damage sensitive electronics without warning.
