I wanted to share an experience. I actually work for CCES. This past weekend we had one of those GA nightly storms, the following morning a large limb decided to break off and hit the electrical line to my house and sent surges of power prior to cutting off the circuit breaker. Do not take those surge protectors for granted they saved my TV but not my HVAC unit.
Emergency call to Walton EMC and CCES. Both were amazing! Shout out to BrandonY and Alex for thinking out of the box and getting me fixed up.
