Abstract
Devices, networks, systems, methods, and processes for standardizing power usage measurement in various devices, components, etc. Measurement methods for power verification in AC or DC input power are often over simplified or done with a method that achieves inaccurate or highly suspect results. Different testing methods for the same device to be verified are often used, resulting in lack of consistency and any sense of accuracy and/or relevance. Part of this problem is the lack of unified electrical measuring and changes in operation based on network usage and ambient temperature. Thus, various embodiments described herein are directed to generating standardized power usage data and charts that can indicate a more accurate power usage level of an apparatus. This can allow for more effective network managing decisions and increase overall network sustainability.
