Explanation

Negative punishment's or  reinforcement .

Negative reinforcement comes as a result of failing to take the necessary precautional measures , whether intentional or unintentional .

Forgetting is a natural circumstance hence if one forgets it means in the first place he has by passed the protocols anyway and he has to take the consequences  .

Sometimes it may be ignorance since it is in common knowledge to turn off  any machine and if possible you should unplug it from the power supply to avoid any shocks which may even be fatal if the source of power does not have mechanisms to control such situations i.e. shocks and power surges .
