I think "power surges" are one of the industries great excuses for brushing off failures.

Transformers are generally very robust. I would look closely at the loading on it. What is it powering and is it overloaded? It shouldn't be an expensive part, so before installing any sort of surge protector, I would just buy a second one and carry a spare.
