Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Overload circuits were components used in pulse rifles. The circuits were designed to shut the weapons down if the super-conducting filaments were not regularly changed; the filaments had short lifespans, and could cause explosions within the weapon if not swapped out after a period of use.
