Hi there, as part of EuP Directive 2005/32/EC EU published Commission Regulation (EC) 1275/2008 for standby and off mode power consumption for multiple product categories. My question is regarding the phrase:
"Equipment shall, except where this is inappropriate for the intended use, provide off mode and/or standby mode, and/or another condition which does not exceed the applicable power consumption requirements for off mode and/or standby mode when the equipment is connected to the mains power source." Would standby mode be inapproporiate for networking equipment, running traffic or even being in the listening mode (which is far different than TV's standby mode)? Did anyone ever received any clarifications from EU on this subject? how is one suppose to determine what is appropriate or not? Thanks, Mark ________________________________ Ready for Fall shows?
