How would humidity levels affect mining room?

What are good practices for fire protection?

The issue with humidity and electronics is condensation, it's not like how it affects warm blooded animals.
The moisture also gets absorbed by some components shortening their life. Low humidity is good but it has
nothing to do with cooling perrformance.

High humidity environments is an ironic case where higher temperatures are better to keep the relative humidity lower
and protect against condensation.

Some "light" reading...
