Regarding the warranty coverage, reread post #18, particularly the part where there is no coverage if the surge originates after the SECO transformer (i.e. a close in strike). Read the warranty, don't rely on what someone on the phone says.

Asked about difference between doing it outside on box or by inside panel and her answer was better to protect against surges before they get inside your house.
Could have save $ 150 or so by having outside contractor install one but this way in the event that lightning destroys our frig we do not get into a he said/she said between Seco and outside contractor.
Apparently does not come with extra individual surge protectors as someone said.
Seco also said buy a good one not one from a dollar store and no difference between a unit that have room for 6 plus or individual one.
We already have surge protection for our computer but will now buy additional ones for TV's
