    Electric kettle: more than 90% [citation needed] (comparatively little heat energy is lost during the 2 to 3 minutes a kettle takes to boil water). A premium efficiency electric motor: more than 90% (see Main Article: Premium efficiency). A large power transformer used in the electrical grid may have efficiency of more than 99%. Early 19th ...

  3. IEC 60034 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60034

    It classifies five classes: IE1 (standard), IE2 (high) and IE3 (premium), IE4 (super premium efficiency), IE5 (ultra premium efficiency). For each class the efficiency is defined for a rated output range from 0.75 to 375 kW. In the European Community the IE2 class is mandatory for all new motors since 16 June 2011. The IE3 class will be ...

  4. Energy conversion efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_conversion_efficiency

    The electrical energy input of this cell is 1.20 times greater than the theoretical minimum so the energy efficiency is 0.83 compared to the ideal cell. A water electrolysis unit operating with a higher voltage that 1.48 V and at a temperature of 25 °C would have to have heat energy removed in order to maintain a constant temperature and the ...
