In: 40

Answer 1

It goes back to power station and spins generators a little faster. If enough people disconnect cables and not use electricity computers in power station will stop sending as much fuel to the generators so that they don’t spin too fast. Else the frequency in power grid will increase and god forsake clocks that rely on a stable grid frequency will start to run ahead.
