After a post on Laptop maintenance a while back, I thought of posting thoughts on protecting not only laptop but all electronic gadgets and gizmos from the main villain “Electric Power”. Even though these gadgets nowadays needs power and comes with inbuilt stabilizers and protectors I think the main source of motherboard problems in computers is due to lack of proper ‘grounding’ of electricity.
And in India, where power supply is very irregular and prone to voltage drops and power surges proper grounding, usage of stabilizers and surge protectors will help prolong the life of our electronic gadgets based on my understanding. So I make sure a electrical technician has checked the power supply, grounding of my power supply and use a surge protector to make sure my laptop is protected from power surges and other power irregularities. And during lightning and rains, I make sure unplug the power cord and telephone cord too.Let me know your thoughts on this topic and post your comments here !!
