Surveillance systems are becoming more commonplace, as people look to protect their homes and businesses. The biggest growth has been in the domestic market, where security systems are more affordable than ever. System capabilities have grown significantly also, as the options available are now tailored also to home protection as well as commercial situations.
There are many reasons you can think of as to why “surge protection” is a great idea. Designed to protect your valuable electrical devices from sudden voltage spikes, a surge protector/guard tries to limit the voltage supplied to your devices by either blocking the current, or shorting the excess voltage to ground. Your equipment runs the risk of major and potentially unrepairable damage if affected by a power surge. This can leave you with not only the inconvenience of losing important computer information, but the expensive reality of having to replace many of your devices. Even if it appears your devices have not been affected, your equipment’s lifespan may be reduced as a result of an overload of voltage through them.
Today we would like to introduce you to Dean. Dean has been with Selby for over 5 years, and is the go-to guy for anything in the office that falls under the IT umbrella. If someone has a question about the systems in the office, the first step will be to ask Dean. Being across several areas of the business helps the various departments work well together. This week we asked Dean our Selby questions. Here are his answers.
