The purpose of the project was to measure and collect standby power data from a range of common household appliances on display in retail stores in two Central Eastern European countries – Hungary and the Czech Republic. The project was carried out to contribute to the pooling of standby data to assist in international comparisons and to track trends in standby power over time at national level. In the Hungarian survey, a total of 500 appliances have been measured, resulting in a total of 969 measurements being recorded for all the relevant modes (off, standby and in use) during the survey. The appliances metered in the survey were microwaves, espresso machines, laptops, monitors, computer speakers, Multi Function Devices, printers, stereos, televisions, DVD players and recorders, Hard Disk Recorders, cordless phone base stations, mobile phone chargers, and External Power Supplies. In this report, the collected data are assessed, in order to indicate the characteristics of a cross-section of the current electronic appliance market in Hungary. Appliances were analyzed in terms of the values metered in each relevant non-functional mode, as well as other characteristics defining the particular product (such as size, existence of different power switches, remote control, electronic display, the type of control and transformer (EPS), where relevant the type of subwoofer, screen resolution, number of tuners, and information on energy labels).
