Severe transient over voltages can damage components, circuit boards and can even burn or destroy the equipment as well as producing the start of a fire. They mainly affect electronic, computer and telecommunications systems.
Can high voltage damage electronics?
Voltage that is too high can cause premature failure of electrical and electronic components (e.g. circuit boards) due to overheating. The damage caused by overheating is cumulative and irreversible. ... Keeping electrical and electronic components cool tends to insure their longevity.
Can high voltage damage equipment?
