This section details the power consumption data that is collected from registered power monitoring targets.
Resource Orchestrator calculates the power (in Watts) and energy (Watt-hours) consumed by a power monitoring target by multiplying its collected electrical current (Amperes) by its registered voltage value (Volts).
This data can then be exported to a file in CSV format or as a graph.
The data can then be summarized or visualized as a graph, using an external tool such as Excel, to obtain a graphical representation of the power consumed by each power monitoring target.
Information
In Resource Orchestrator, power consumption is calculated as the product of electrical current (A) multiplied by voltage (V). Normally, power consumption is the product of an electrical current multiplied by a voltage and an additional phase factor (if the phase difference between the current and voltage is defined as "θ", this factor is expressed as "cosθ").
Note
This data should only be used as a reference to evaluate the power consumption status. It should not be used as an exact power consumption measurement for billing purposes.
