Reviewing PC Standby Power to Save Energy
PCs are left on even when employees leave their desks for lunch and meetings.
The HIOKI Clamp-On Power LOGGER captures real-time conditions to enable review of power-saving settings in order to modify PC configurations to save energy.
Highlights
Measuring power consumption trends lets you measure consumed power of PCs.
Energy-saving effectiveness can then be verified from power trend data collected after taking energy-saving measures.
Measurement data
This shows PC power consumption before and after countermeasures. Countermeasures include enabling PC standby settings to reduce power consumption during lunch time.
