Why electronic hardwares (like motherboard, phones, TV) hate water?
In: Technology
Water causes short circuits, meaning that electricity gets to where it’s not supposed to. All electronics rely on good electrical signals from and to the inputs of the individual chips involved, which will all be interrupted if there are short circuits. Power supplies really hate water, because it short circuits the power supply and either it overloads and shuts due to the high current or it will literally be destroyed by the heat from that high current.
