AC power cable

Link108 · Jul 28, 2013

Hi, I was away for a while helping my brother move. When I came back, I found out that my cat got trapped in my room. She peed behind my computer, the pee got on my ac power cord to my power supply. I didn't see any pee on my computer or on the power supply plug itself. The computer was turned off while I was gone. When I turned the computer on, it worked fine. I am going to go buy a digital multimeter to test it. Please let me know of anything, thanks.

Update: The cable was dry when I cam back.

If computer is working fine, then there is nothing to worry and as you have already planned to check, so sit back and relax.

i've had a whole camera + sd card fall into a lake, worked fine after drying

also i love cats... how does it get 'trapped'? regardless, whether it's a cat or toddler or ice cream, the issue is with things getting stuck in a closed room, not that a cat is being bad

& if it's just the cable then who cares, they're pretty much the same size & shape, no need to stay with the same one that came with the psu if the cable is ever ruined

If it hasn't caught fire by now there is nothing wrong with it.
Just make sure everything is completely dry before you power devices back on if it ever happens again, Use a hair dryer.

Also its hardly the poor cats fault, Don't let it in the room if there is a risk.
