6. What is Phantom/Standby Power ?
Power drawn by a device when not in use or standby while plugged in.
Causes:
• 5 – 10% of residential electricity in most countries
• 1% of global CO2 emissions
Almost every electronic devices consumes Phantom
power.
e.g. TV, Home Entertainment
System, Computers, Mobile Chargers.

36. Runtime Losses and Standby Power
The Biggest Culprit
Runtime Losses:
Takes place due to
negligence of employees.
Standby Power Losses:
Occurs when devices are left ON
For example when employees go for
at the end of the day.
lunch, they usually do not turn off their
computers which results in power loss of
up to 100 Watts/Hr/computer.
Similarly a majority of employees do not
switch OFF their system once the
computer is shut down resulting in
Standby Losses up to 10
Watts/Hr/Computer.
Calculations shows that about 30%
of electricity is wasted per year per
computer due to Runtime and
Standby Power Losses.
