The surge protectors do not protect u from a lightening strike. They protect u from surges in your wiring system.. A lightening strike will take out your house in a heartbeat. However, if ur house suffers from a spike in the line, the surge protector has a good chance of smoothing out the surge. It is a gud idea to install a surge protector, but be sure u understand what protection u r buying.
