2 R2 units discharged into each other, causing one unit enter a limited state (probably powered down) to preserve component integrity

B/c that's not how electrical fires work.
The electricity isn't magically carrying a flame along it's current.
The oil was on fire. The "electricity" was not on fire.
Putting a fire next to an electrical box isn't smart obviously, but it also doesn't make the electrical box ignite in flames either, b/c it's typcially not flammable since it's made of metal.
Electrical fires happen when the wires inside the protective conduit get to hot and melt the conduit. They then are hot enough to start a fire with a combustible material, like common things in your house like wood/insulation/sheetrock. Not concrete, or metal. If the hot wire doesn't have a material to touch that is flammable, then a fire won't start. The wire would simply melt due to the heat. But since concrete in Star Wars is flammable, we go what we saw in this show.
You're basically saying if my house burns down due to an electrical fire, i'm going to blow up all the transformers up the line from my house and catch all the wooden power poles on fire.
that makes no sense.

it appears to be causing small explosions along the way, not carrying a flame.

And now you say it obviously doesn't?

it created the current that caused the explosion, by altering the existing current that was distributing electricity throughout the mine as intended

Just fall back on your "It's a kids show about space wizards, in a land far far away, Just suspend disbelief" and roll on.
You can copy and paste all you want, but you don't understand it.
Just stop, for your sake

if something changes the current then it creates a new one.
new = taking the place of one that came before
an overload current would be different than the normal current.

The short doesn't change the current in any way.

you just agreed it did a few posts above

,An overload can happen because of a short, but the short doesn't create the current or amplify the current
If a short causes an overload to occur, then it created the overload. i dont know what semantics you are going for it.

OK if a short never occurred then the overload wouldn't have occurred. are you with me that far?
Due to the short occurring, the overload occurred.
that means the short is responsible for the overload occurring, it created it/caused it/altered it.
it's beer thirty nobody got time for this shite. I don't know how to describe it in electronic semantics, you win. thanks for making the workday go by faster.

quote:possibly. But overloads are caused by power, not simply current. Overcurrent is caused by current. Generators REQUIRE overcurrent to operate properly

All a short can do is pass current.

quote:That is possible. But an overload, aside from a massive surge, wouldn't catch fire. Actually a low power situation is as likely to cause component ignition

Oh I was never saying the show made sense in real life electronics. I was trying to describe what the show was trying to portray on screen.
it's Star Wars, shite doesn't always work like it does in real life. All we can do is make sense of what they give us.
Like George basically said, the world works to fit the story, not the other way around.
That's all for me today, thanks for the electronics semi-lesson

You have spent the past 3 days arguing this electrical fire.

I think you’ve jumped the shark trying to explain sci fi tech.
there are genuine fake physics involved in every sci fi show. What’s the G force in a jumo to light speed?
was luke even buckled in?

ChatGPT wrote this. Clearly an accurate portrayal of this thread.

I'd say it's fascinating to see such a high level of engagement and passion for "The Acolyte." It's clear the show has sparked your imaginations and interest in its details. While it might seem excessive to some, these kinds of debates can deepen your understanding and enjoyment of the show. Plus, it's a great way to connect with fellow fans and explore different perspectives on the plot and world-building elements.
