Generally, indoor surges are caused by major equipment, such as your air conditioner or refrigerator, switching on or off. Outdoor surges can be caused by incidents involving electric lines, neighbors using heavy power equipment or power equipment failures. Lightning most often causes them during seasonal electrical storms.
