3.6
active mode
the mode of output current between zero (excluding) to rated current where the input end of product is connected to network source and output end is connected to load
3.7

ratio of actual output power to actual input active power where the product reaches steady active mode
3.9

4.1 Energy efficiency grade
4.1.1 Energy efficiency grade of external power supply
Energy efficiency grades of external power supply are classified into 3 grades and energy efficiency Grade 1 therein is the highest. The minimum average efficiency at each level of active mode, maximum active power under no load mode, and minimum power factor under rated condition of the external power supply shall meet the requirements of Tables 1 to 4. Among them, for products with adjustable voltage single voltage output, two modes of minimum output voltage and maximum output voltage shall be tested. As the nominal value of output power shall meet the requirements of Table 3, the lower of the corresponding level of the two shall be selected to determine the energy efficiency grade of the product.
The minimum average efficiency in the active mode, the maximum active power in the no load mode, and the minimum power factor in the rated state of the external power supply shall be rounded off to 3 decimal places in accordance with GB/T 8170.
