The commercial grade protectors are quite a bit more sophisticated than 
the few small MOV's network in the small residential units.  A look 
inside a Joslyn is instructive about what it probably *really* takes to 
protect against serious surges.  They have means to maintain protection 
since MOVs degrade with hits .

If you really have a recurring serious surge problem then spending 
several hundred bucks may be worthwhile  see

There are cheaper/less capable models as well.
