Overhead clearance in main panel is a potential hazard.

A lightning storm, a bird or animal hitting a power line or transformer, or a freak accident.

A surge can bring with it anywhere from five to 10 times the normal amount of electricity

A fuse(s) or circuit breaker(s) is needed in any electrical system (AC or DC). These protection devices react to the amount of heat being produced by electricity passing through wires and/or components. They are used to protect wires and components from the extreme heat produced should there be an electrical overload or short circuit.By having the wrong sized disconnects, fuses and breakers it may cause your electrical system to not be protected adequately which could result in a home fire. In

Over 70% of house fires are caused by loose connections. Loose connections cause small arcs of electricity. A AFCI device detects this really small jumps of electricity and shuts off before a major issue arises.

A ground fault happens whenever electricity escapes the confines of the wiring in a kitchen appliance or light fixture and takes a shortcut to the ground. When that short cut is through a human, the results can be deadly. About 200 people in the U.S. alone die of ground faults each year, accounting for two-thirds of all electrocutions occurring in homes. GFCI protection reduces this risk.
