I use an Intermatic Panel Guard whole house surge protector mounted at the side of the main breaker box next to the power meter. The Panel Guard requires two unused circuit breakers in the main breaker box and is available in several sizes depending on the capacity of your electrical system.
The idea is to route the excessive (surge) current immediately to ground before giving it a chance to enter your internal house wiring. It's the best and safest way to protect all of your electric appliances and electronic gear. These things really work! Note that the Panel Guard is not a power conditioner, etc. so you might want to consider employing something like that in addition to a whole house surge protector, especially if your normal house current is 'dirty'.
Cheers,
Al
