Note: These are approximate figures for guidance only, and are subject to changes in specification. The figures show energy consumption
when an item or appliance is operating – i.e. a light is illuminated, or a heating system is providing space heating or water heating. Appliances
which feature LCD or illuminated control panels can have a low current consumption when in stand by mode, or have a constant low current
draw in the background to run their displays and electronic systems - these figures are typically 0.4 amps or less, for each applicable item.
These electronic items can in most cases be switched off individually, or, use of the System Shutdown button on the power supply unit isolates
all of these items.
