At about 5 ppm, that's a weak acid indeed. ;-)

It's the corrosion formed from the pure water which absorbs CO2,
a weak acid, that will cause the problems on the metal surfaces
and contacts. That can and does lead to shorts, fire, burn outs.
Rubber end caps, proper wiring and precautions avoid this.
