YOUR PROPERTY
The Sheds is a rental-only cluster development with its own gatehouse beside Waterfall Country Estate.
CHOOSE THE WORK YOU NEED
For rented premises, list the appliances you brought with you and the fixed equipment supplied with the property. Tell the owner about concerns involving the electrical installation. Wesslink can discuss an assessment and a quote that identifies the work requested, while equipment maintained under a separate agreement stays with its responsible repairer.

FROM CONCERN TO A CLEAR QUOTE
Explain whether equipment has failed, the installation has changed or you want preventive protection. Wesslink can discuss the assessment and identify the work to quote.

A surge protective device limits transient overvoltage and diverts surge energy. It helps reduce risk; it does not make equipment immune to every event or voltage disturbance.
SPDs are selected and coordinated for the supply, earthing, exposure, boards and equipment. Different Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 roles may be relevant.
A structural lightning-protection system has a different role. Direct strikes, induced lightning, utility switching and internally generated transients must not be treated as one diagnosis.
A surge should not be diagnosed remotely. Transformers and network switching can create transient conditions, but protection cannot be promised against every voltage disturbance.
There is no universal number of surge protectors for every property. Map the incoming supply, earthing and exposure; trace main and downstream boards, cable distances and critical loads; include relevant power, data and control lines; then coordinate the selected device roles.


Manufacturer guidance should be applied to the specific installation.
CHECK BEFORE YOU NEED TO CLAIM
Your insurer’s requirements matter. Check your current policy schedule, surge-cover benefits, limits, excesses, exclusions and any protection requirements with your insurer or broker.
Installing an SPD does not automatically secure a payout. Equally, the absence of a particular device does not establish automatic rejection under every policy. Claim treatment also depends on the actual cause.
Keep incident photographs, equipment details, installation records, assessments and repair evidence. Record previous damage as evidence rather than assuming a cause.

ANSWERS BEFORE YOU BOOK
Practical answers for the equipment and work you are considering.
Ask Wesslink: 072 271 7111 ↗Yes. Describe the property and equipment when you enquire. Involve the owner or manager before changes to the fixed installation, and establish who will approve and pay for that work.
Tell the owner what stopped working and retain any repair findings. An electrical assessment and an appliance repair can be different jobs. Ask what each contractor will inspect before treating the failure as a confirmed surge.
No. Policy treatment depends on the insurer, plan, schedule, limits, excesses, optional benefits, exclusions and actual cause. Check current policy wording and preserve incident, installation and repair evidence.
Contact Wesslink Electrical on 072 271 7111 to arrange an assessment of your electrical installation and discuss suitable surge protection.
