I rent mine (the red lit unit behind the meter) from SECO (left part of photo), who installed it -- and the right side of photo shows the surge protector I paid an electrician to install which connects to the fuse box in the garage. Those who don't know about these, and why they are used, should attend a "Lightning" presentation by the Villages Lightning Study Group. Remember - Florida is the lightning capital of the US.
