230.67 Service Equipment Surge Protection - https://www.mikeholt.com/code. This new section requiring the installation of a surge-protective device (SPD) for all dwelling unit services has been a long time coming.

Section, 230.67, now requires surge protection for all dwelling unit services to protect sensitive life safety devices like smoke and CO detectors from surge damage.
