Abstract: A surge protection system provides surge protection to a load. The load is connected to a breaker panel through the surge protection system and a surge protection module bridges the hot/neutral/ground such that the surge protection module absorbs surges from the breaker panel and beyond. Being that, after exposure to certain amounts of surges, the surge protection modules lose effectiveness for surge protection, the surge protection module is removable and replaceable by a user without risk of personal injury from shock caused by making personal contact with electrical power. During removal and replacement, the load remains in electrical connection to the breaker panel.
