A loose joint behind a wall does its damage quietly. Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Cuts power during dangerous high/low voltage. - Delay protects compressors after outages. - Fridge guard for fridges and freezers. Quick answer A fridge guard (voltage protector) cuts power to your appliance when voltage goes too high or too low, then waits a few minutes after power returns before reconnecting. That delay protects fridge and freezer compressors, which are easily damaged by the surge when KPLC power comes back. TV guards protect TVs, decoders and sound systems the same way.
