Protections

Hello. This article completely lacks info about Power Supply Units protections, like HIPOT, OVP (Over Voltage Protection), OPP (Over Power Protection), SCP (Short Circuit Protection), etc . These are important info to look when buying PSUs, as the lack of those protections means the PSU doesn't have much quality and might damage the computer. They are, however, briefly mentioned at Power supply#Specification.--MisterSanderson (talk) 17:01, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
