Preventive maintenance
(PM) refers to performing a series of maintenance
tasks to prevent system problems. It is
done as a precautionary measure to avoid
any problem in future. This is different from corrective
maintenance, which includes measures to
correct an existing problem. PC (Personal
Computer) preventive maintenance includes
proactive maintenance of PC components such
as, mouse, keyboard, drives, and monitor
to ensure smooth functioning of a PC.
For example, if you use a room cooler, you
should check the water level regularly. You should clean
the water tank and pads at a regular interval.
You should also check whether the pump is properly
greased. You should perform these maintenance activities
to avoid sudden breakdown of your room cooler.
This would increase the performance of room cooler
and helps in smooth functioning for a longer
period of time. |
