2007 Energy Independence and Security Act - EISA

The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 was passed in December of 2007 and addresses minimum efficiency standards

and standby levels for Class A external power supplies that are 250 Watts and under. This law stipulates that external power

supplies manufactured on July 1, 2008 and beyond meet certain minimum efficiency and standby criteria as defined below.

Minimum Efficiency Criteria:

Active mode is defined as when a power supply’s input is connected to a line voltage AC and it’s output is connected to a DC or AC

load, drawing a portion of the product’s power output. Depending upon the power rating for the power supply, it must meet the

minimum efficiency criteria outlined below.

Energy-Efficiency Criteria for Active Mode:

Output Power on Adapter Label

0 to < 1 Watt

> 1 watt to ≤ 51 watts

> 51 watts

Minimum Average Efficiency Percentage

≥ 0.50 * output power on the label

≥ [0.09 * Ln (output power on adapter label)] + 0.50

≥ 0.85

Energy Consumption Criteria for No Load Mode:

The power supply must also meet a requirement for when its input is connected to line voltage AC but its output is not connected to a

load. Depending upon the power output of the supply, it must keep its energy consumption below the following values:

Output Power on Adapter Label

0 to < 250 Watts

Maximum Power Consumption in No-Load Mode

≤ 0.50 watts

Notes:

1. Center Contact = Positive

2. Connector is Switchcraft 760 plug or equivalent.

3. Suggested Mating Connector is Switchcraft 712A jack or equivalent.
