Various embodiments of the present disclosure may include an assembly with a shock detection and disabling device. The shock detection and disabling device may detect when a shock greater than a shock threshold has been experienced by the assembly and disable the assembly. In certain embodiments, the shock detection and disabling device may include a shock detection component connected to an electrical conductor to form an electrical circuit. When a force above a threshold force level and/or profile is detected by the shock detection component, the shock detection component may break the electrical circuit to render the assembly inoperable.
