Why Unplugging an Inductor Can Create a Huge Voltage Spike
An inductor is basically just a spool of copper wire that stores power in a magnetic field. Because they forcefully resist any sudden changes in electrical current, unplugging a massive inductor suddenly causes the magnetic field to collapse instantly, generating a massive, lethal voltage spike. They are the temperamental hoarders of the circuit board.
