Most experts agree that standby power is electricity used by appliances and equipment while they are switched off or not performing their primary function. That power is consumed by power supplies (the black cubes—sometimes called "vampires"—converting AC into DC), the circuits and sensors needed to receive a remote signal, soft keypads and displays including miscellaneous LED status lights. Standby power use is also caused by circuits that continue to be energized even when the device is "off". That definition is attractive to a lay person but inadequate for technical purposes. An international technical standards committee is developing a definition and test procedure.
How can I identify products that draw standby power? Almost any product with an external power supply, remote control, continuous display (including an LED), or charges batteries will draw power continuously. How much standby does my TV, microwave, etc. use? Sometimes. Standby power. In the past, standby power was largely a non-issue for users, electricity providers, manufacturers, and government regulators.
In the first decade of the twenty-first century, awareness of the issue grew and it became an important consideration for all parties. Up to the middle of the decade, standby power was often several watts or even tens of watts per appliance. By 2010, regulations were in place in most developed countries restricting standby power of devices sold to one watt (and half that from 2013). How much electricity does it use? This page contains some notes and measurements on electricity consumption of various household items.
I had to work out the cost of running a server for a year and was surprised at how many units of electricity were used, so I decided to start recording other household items. The items I've listed here are things which are typically left plugged in (on standby). How much does it cost? Electricity consumption (at least in the UK) is measured and paid for by units, where one unit is the equivalent of 1 kilowatt hour. So a 100watt light bulb left on for ten hours uses 1unit of electricity (100watts x 10hours = 1000 watt hours = 1kwh) as would a 2kw fan heater left on for half an hour. The following table is provided as a guide and shows how many units (kwh) devices would use according to their rated power consumption: So a 100 watt bulb left on 24 hours a day for a year will use 876 units of electricity, which at (say) 15p per unit would work out at £131.40.
How Power-line Networking Works" Power-line networking is one of several ways to connect the computers in your home.
It uses the electrical wiring in your house to create a network. Like HomePNA, power-line networking is based on the concept of "no new wires. " The convenience is even more obvious in this case because while not every room has a phone jack, you will always have an electrical outlet near a computer. In power-line networking, you connect your computers to one another through the same outlet. Because it requires no new wiring, and the network adds no cost to your electric bill, power-line networking is the cheapest method of connecting computers in different rooms. In this article, we'll talk about power-line networking and the technology used to make it happen.
