How to calculate input Ampere for 1756-PA72 power supplies?

[flyers]

Hi guys,

May I know how can I calculate the total current consumption for 1756-PA72 power supply? My input is 240V AC.

I'll use input power (max): 100VA/100W

P = VI
100 = 100 x 1
I = 1 Amp

For 240V AC
100W = 240V AC x I
I = 100W/240V AC
I = 0.42 Amp?

Is my calculation above for the current consumption correct?

Thanks in advance.

Yes it is.

Consider also the inrush current, which duration is usually about 200ms as the capacitors charge up.

OK, now I understand. Thanks.
