Also you need to protect your rg6 cable coming into your house if you have spectrum or xfinity.

Note that the SECO warranty would not cover the digital panel on a kitchen range because it has a microchip, which is excluded from coverage in the exclusion clause of the warranty. It would also not cover the rg6 cable. It won't even cover regular electrical wiring or a duplex outlet that is damaged by a surge.
I think the warranty was written by a team of Philadelphia lawyers.
