Tech/Engineering
English term or phrase: wear/electrical components
Turning the power on and off can
cause excessive wear on electrical components
Quería corroborar si es "un desgaste excesivo en los componentes eléctricos" o se les ocurre otra cosa...

desgaste (o bien "deterioro")
Explanation:
"wear" aplicado a dispositivos significa "desgaste", aunque también "deterioro". No obstante el uso de "excessive" me lleva a pensar que efectivamente la traducción correcta sería "desgaste".
