What's Included

  • Panamax Primax Whole-House Surge Suppressor GPP8005
  • More Info


    Designed specifically for residential use, this unit is rated for split single-phase panels up to 400 amps and will absorb an astonishing 2,700 Joules! And with an ultra high spike capacity of 60,000 amps, this surge suppressor is one of the best values you'll find for the money anywhere. And unlike most other whole-house surge suppressors, this unit is equipped with two LED lights to indicate protection status, and an audible alarm to alert you when there was a disruption in power.

    Other features include:
    • Single-point grounding for convenient multiple signal line grounding and safety

    • Watertight, weatherproof, UV treated, fiberglass-infused plastic enclosure

    • Fire-safe thermal protection designed to UL 1449

    • Grounding bar for signal lines (CATV, Satellite, Telco)

    • Mounting tabs for any wall surface using appropriate fasteners

    In addition, the manufacturer provides a 3-year Connected Major Appliance Protection Policy up to $10,000 for the repair or replacement of major household appliances (refrigerator, freezer, oven, range, washer, dryer, ceiling fan or dishwasher) and a 5-year product warranty.

    For items that are especially sensitive to surges (i.e. computers, A/V devices), we still recommend the additional protection of plug-in surge protection power strips. Due to the high-voltage nature of this product, we recommend installation by a qualified electrician, which usually takes less than 30 minutes.

    Reviews

    "shipped quickly, purchased for a new construction home in the Republic of Panama where most neighbors have fried their electronics due to numerous storms during rainy season and fragile infrastructure. I will report as I gain experience.Hopefully the report will be good. Will probably replace the surge protector in a few years as "insurance"" - STAN - SANIBEL, FL
    "I found the installation very straight forward and easy to do. I give it four stars only because until there is a spike, I don't know how effective it is in protecting my "appliances". I'm trusting you." - JOHN - CHESTER, NH
    "no problems. product arrived as ordered." - STANLEY - KANEOHE, HI
