A breakdown is a defect or failure.

Breakdown is a concept that can be used in multiple ways. In colloquial language, a failure , an inconvenience or damage that affects the normal use of something is known as a breakdown.

In this case, the etymological root of breakdown could be found in the Catalan word avaria , which in turn derives from the Arabic awāriyyah . Faults are defects or defects . For example: "Due to a breakdown in the plane, the flight is delayed" , "A breakdown in a gas pipe forced the supply to the area to be interrupted" , "I was planning to arrive before noon, but a car breakdown prevented me from arriving". "It took longer than expected."

When something breaks down, it is broken. It can be said, in this framework, that a television that does not emit sounds is broken. To recover the normal operation of the device, it is necessary to repair the fault.

Failure of an electronic device

When faced with a malfunction in an electronic device , there are several paths that the user can take, depending on certain factors. First of all, if you bought it recently and it is still under warranty, you can contact the manufacturer to request technical service. Here again several options may arise, as in some cases assistance can be provided remotely, such as when the fault is due to software or network problems, while in others it is necessary for the customer to send the device directly to the center for experts to evaluate the problem and carry out the necessary repair, after which the product will be returned to you.

It is important to note that manufacturers protect their devices from unauthorized repairs by using seals that are destroyed once someone opens them. In this way, if a product is within the warranty period but the owner chooses to try to fix it on his own or hire an unofficial technician, he will no longer be able to enjoy the warranty. Of course, the official technical service is not always the best option, since many times they replace recently purchased products with others without the customer's consent, so they send them a different one, which may be in worse condition than the original and even be more ancient.

For this and other reasons, it is not uncommon for users to prefer to venture out and repair any breakdown on their own, and to do so it is not always necessary to have prior technical knowledge but rather they can consult the large number of tutorials present on social networks, both in text as in video. Likewise, if to complete the job it is necessary to purchase a specific piece, there are various virtual and physical stores that distribute them at retail, so that anyone can buy them and assume the risk of using them without supervision or the appropriate tools.

bird breeding

The place where poultry breeding takes place and the group of birds that live in a pen are also called breakdowns.

Breakage right

The average right , on the other hand, was a tax established in the trade of the Spanish colonies that was applied to merchandise or merchants. During the 16th and 17th centuries , the damage made it possible to obtain income that financed the protection provided to commercial vessels that traveled between Spain and the so-called Indies .

The damage was a tax of between 2.5% and 30% that was added to the value of the merchandise. Due to the increase in smuggling and fraud, in 1660 this fee was stopped.
