How does a power drain work in electronic devices?

260 views

I work in tech so it is kinda embarrassing for me to ask this question but I never quite understood how something as simple as a power drain can solve almost all problems with a device. I use power to drain all the time, as the first troubleshooting step once we get our hands on a malfunctioning device but never quite questioned how until now.

Most machines are tested very extensively from an off position. Most machines are not tested nearly as extensively when running for an extended period. As machines run, they accumulate errors, as something or another malfunctions in extended use. By turning the machine off and putting it in its base state, you get it back to where it was designed to run from, which, if nothing permanently died, will get you up and running.
