Will the computer burn out during a sudden power outage

For connoisseurs of comp. gland! Will the computer burn out during a sudden power outage (the effect of pulling the plug out of the socket)?

I'm an electrician on duty. Sometimes you have to turn off house assemblies without notifying residents. Some residents begin to swear and say that their computer may burn out? Is it true?

Apartment buildings, 90 - 200 apartments. But when an abnormal situation occurs (fire, short circuit, etc.), then there is no time for talk, it is necessary to turn it off.

sudden disconnection of power from the PC does not cause it to burn out, but can lead to failure of the hard drive, loss of unsaved data and system crashes (uninterruptible power supplies are used to prevent this)
