RE: I need a quick 'electrical' education

At last! A chance to really show my ignorance . . .

But the thing that occurs to me immediately is internal component failure, particularly in the power supply. Short circuits--with their near instantaneous high current flow--can be caused by many things: a blown tube; a bad capacitor; hot leads touching each other. I think even power surges on the incoming AC line.

Lew, can you add and/or subtract from these?
