Why is my ps4 shutting off by itself?

Why is my ps4 shutting off by itself?

Hello it's been a week since my ps4 started to shut off by itself and get corrupted I thought it was the ps4 the problem since only it and my tv are plugged into the power strip and only the ps4 shuts off the tv remains ON I tried with several power strips and extension cords. Yesterday I was going to buy another ps4 but I stopped and wanted to try something I plugged the ps4 into the wall socket directly and left it ON for 5h30 minutes and guess what it stayed ON. The thing is I can't leave the ps4 plugged into the wall socket because it's far and I only have 1 which means No TV... what should I do? why does this problem occur? would a UPS solve the problem? if yes is a pure sine wave one mandatory?

There is no sign of it shutting off such as a red light flashing it just shuts off, and there isn’t much online. The big thing is Sony expects me to pay $100 to send it in. That’s a load of bs, if I paid $450 I expect $450 worth of service. Not to mention it’s a malfunction based off their design. I hope this hurts their less than flawless reputation!

Do you have a sound bar connected? If you do disconnect it when playing ps4 fixed the problem for us
