I refer you to post #25 of this very thread and the bit I copied direction from the book where it states

Control circuitry and electronic components of all types (in every type of industrial facility) were fried by the EMP (electromagnetic pulses) of nuclear detonations thousands of miles away (prewar predictions of EMP proved to be underestimates, and even supposedly shielded equipment was damaged to some extent).
Seems pretty damn clear to me and leaves very little to interpretation. Electronics were FRIED.
This happened THOUSANDS OF MILES from detonations.
Even shielded equipment was damaged.

How much clearer do you need?
