It sounds very expensive! Does insurance fully cover this? I always wondered!

Even though I have electrical surge protectors at home, it sure was expensive when just about every electrical device in my house failed, and my house wasn't directly hit, the strike was never located, but somewhere nearby on the street.
We have a modest solar system of 6120 Watts and are a 100% electric home including heat. We are very satisfied with what we have and the system performance. We added the system to our home insurance coverage for very little $$. Something like $25/annually.
