For $10.95 and tax a month, my utility company is offering to to insure me against electric surges frying my appliances. Is it worth it?
I would be protecting a fridge, oven, central aircon for a 1-bedroom apt, a couple of TVs, computer, and dvd players.
I've never lost an appliance due to an electrical surge, but out of caution, I have always disconnected my computer and tv/dvd connections, and have full time surge protection on my computer.
