Cap draining with inactive modules?

Not sure if this is an issue, or working as intended, but here is it:

Abbadon with 7 high Mega Pulse II using Scorch L charge.

MWD and Salvager activatable.

While shooting, the cap is draining pretty damn fast. I thought this was weird, so let my cap fully recharge, and ran it down again. Recharged the cap fully, and put offline the salvager and MWD (which weren't activated at any point)

Cap is now stable.

Do any modules passively drain the cap even when not activated??

your MWD has a cap penalty, reducing overall capacity while recharge rate stays the same

means your getting fewer cap/s recharge and your ship cannot keep up with the drain from your guns
though i always assumed penalties would still be there when you offline the module.
