About Wavecrest

The Wavecrest Power Conditioner protects electrical equipment from volatile power conditions and disturbances. This unit is used best to pinpoint specific equipment from power problems such as:​

  • Harmonics

  • RFI

  • Surge

  • Over/Under Voltage

  • Transients

  • Brownouts

  • Sag

  • Notching

  • Noise

  • Flicker

  • Poor power factor

  • And more!

Sensitive Electronics Are Everywhere

Protecting electronic equipment is recommended by electric utilities because of unplanned disturbances. Wavecrest’s patent pending design is the first to cover all harmful and annoyance power disturbances, protecting all equipment on a dedicated circuit.

 

That includes, but is not limited to:

  • LED lighting

  • Computers

  • Phone systems

  • Electrical outlets

  • Door operators

  • and more

One of a Kind Overvoltage Protection

No other product monitors the voltage to ensure correct voltage is supplied. If a mishap of over or undervoltage occurs, the Wavecrest opens the circuit, protecting all equipment from failing due to the voltage condition. This is a common problem with power coming back online after an outage.

Innovation in Cost and Function

Wavecrest's innovation is in its capabilities as well as its low cost. It is now economical to have this level of protection for all types of power quality problems.

Power Quality Events the Wavecrest Protects Against

Power Quality and power conditioning are commonly used phrases to describe a wide variety of problems and solutions.

 

The chart below is intended to shed some light on common power quality problems that the Wavecrest solves and, perhaps more importantly, problems that it does not solve.

 

The Wavecrest DOES NOT reduce kWh or voltage. Many power conditioning products claim a 5%-10% power reduction. Those claims are dubious at best and outright lies at worst. Be very wary of any “black box” product claiming to reduce kW.

 

The Wavecrest cleans up "dirty" power and protects the electronics on the particular circuit it is wired into. The following is a brief description of each one of those common problems.

Wiring Instructions

WARNING: Do not disconnect or loosen any White neutral wires inside circuit breaker panel.

 

For any questions about Wavecrest installation please call 732-842-8889.

  1. Turn power off to the circuit breaker of the desired circuit the Wavecrest is connecting too.

  2. Remove the load wire from the circuit breaker. This wire connects to the Wavecrest terminal marked RED/OUT.

  3. Run a white wire from the Wavecrest terminal marked WHITE/NEU to its own neutral buss connection in the circuit breaker panel.

  4. Run a wire from the circuit breaker to the Wavecrest terminal marked BLACK/HOT.

  5. Connect the ground wire to ground in the circuit breaker panel.

  6. Turn circuit breaker back on to energize the protected circuit.
