Power consumption (kWh)

In addition to monitoring the device power states, average power consumption must be defined to hardware category or asset model item of the device in order to estimate the power consumption in wattages.

Electricity cost

Electricity cost is not gathered from the device. Instead, the electricity costs are calculated based on the power states of the device. In addition to monitoring the device power states, electricity price must be defined on location item that is related to the device in order to estimate the electricity costs of the device.

Currency for the electricity costs can be defined in Administration > System settings > Main > Power management > Power management settings.
