A Phantom Load, also known as standby power, is the electricity consumed by appliances and devices when they are not in active use. For example, if you’re listening to music through your home stereo setup and the consumption is 80 watts, that is the active load. When the stereo is off, and it’s still consuming 5 watts of power, that’s the phantom load.
Here are some examples of devices that typically have a phantom load:
Televisions, surround sound systems, stereo equipment, and gaming consoles
Computers, printers, monitors, and some powered PC speakers
Cordless landline phones, cell phone chargers, and battery chargers
Cable modem: 8.62 W
Wireless phone: 4.89 W
Microwave (with clock): 4.9 W
Phantom loads can add up to significant spending over the course of a year. Therefore, identifying and eliminating unnecessary phantom loads can be beneficial for both the environment and your wallet.
