Title: Energy Efficiency Standards for External Power Supplies 
Abstract: In addition to the existing general definition of "external power supply," the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) defines a "class A external power supply" and sets efficiency standards for those products. EISA directs the Department of Energy (DOE) to publish a final rule to determine whether the standards set for class A external power supplies should be amended along with standards for other classes of external power supplies that DOE determines satisfy the necessary statutory criteria.
