Yep its the big power transformers on the electricity grids that would be at risk from a major CME because they are grounded and its the high ground currents from major CMEs that can overload transformers and cause them to fail. The coils inside can even melt, not an quick thing to fix!
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7546576 thanks for sharing this very useful info unfortunately their info is incorrect prepare as you will SOOO, should I just unplug stuff then or would it even matter? physically removing the plug may save some stuff, thats for sure
