Microchips -- all electronics -- are the most susceptible, but he doesn't use plain ol' electrical stuff either.  Candles for light, not light-bulbs, because he kept blowing light-bulbs.  No hot-water heater, old icebox instead of refrigerator.

With only the slightest of efforts, he blew a transformer box; also, an electric fence.

That has seemed to have changed though in the castle.  He has a walk in freezer where he stores pizza for Za'Gard.

Having experienced Molly's digs, he knows it's possible!  Maybe he just worked a warding circle into the floor, set the freezer into it.

He may have shopped at the Best Buy in Svartalfheim.

Etc.

I mean... he has a castle as his personal residence, and enough diamonds that he no longer needs to worry about scrimping on meals, or making rent, or paying his bills (paying his debts is a different matter!), so the Old Dresden stories featuring the Struggling PI are kind of a thing of the past.

I think the elves had a lot to do with the wiring in Molly's apartment, and if they are helping with the remodeling and repair of the castle, they could install the same set up.. Harry needs it, it just isn't him anymore.

Maybe the mantle would let him get a cell phone like Molly.
