Eaton Whole-House Surge Protector

Eaton CHSPT2ULTRA: Industry-Leading Surge Protection for Western Oregon Homes

The Eaton CHSPT2ULTRA is widely regarded by electricians as one of the best whole-house surge protective devices available for residential installation, and it is the model we most frequently recommend at Checkpoint Electric LLC. What distinguishes the CHSPT2ULTRA from cheaper alternatives is its exceptionally high surge current rating of 108,000 amps — significantly higher than the minimum 40,000-amp rating required by the current National Electrical Code (NEC). This high surge current capacity means the device can absorb multiple large surge events over its lifetime without degrading, providing reliable long-term protection. The CHSPT2ULTRA also includes LED status indicator lights that provide a clear visual confirmation that the device is functioning correctly, and it comes with a substantial downstream equipment protection warranty that covers connected appliances if they are damaged by a surge while the device is installed. Eaton's surge protection line is designed to integrate seamlessly with Eaton BR and CH series electrical panels, but it can also be installed on panels from other manufacturers. For homeowners in Eugene, Springfield, and Roseburg who want the absolute best in residential surge protection, the Eaton CHSPT2ULTRA is our top recommendation.
