Sanity check, of sorts. Several TV's will use the same amount of
power whether or not they are connected to U-verse. Of course they
will use less power if you don't turn them on. And even less if you
don't plug them in.
Or were you thinking of the power used in the local distribution box
that (remotely) handles sending the signals to your TV?
