Find out the 5 devices that consume the most power in standby mode

With the rise in energy prices, it is important to ensure that consumption is kept to a minimum. In contrast to this movement, we have equipment at home that is constantly consuming, even when it is turned off. Find out the 5 devices that consume the most power in standby mode.

Equipment that consumes more power is in standby mode
Managing energy consumption at home is not an easy task.  There is equipment that we must permanently connect and consume, even if the benefit it brings is not ideal or even beneficial to the consumer.
The worst behaved in this area are those who are on standby, waiting for need.  A recent analysis revealed the five appliances that consume the most standby power in a home.

Printer: 52.6 kWh/year
Router: 35.0 kWh/year
Music system: 35.0 kWh/year
Gas boiler: 27.2 kWh/year
Alexa or Google speakers: 26.3 kWh/yr

How to avoid this behavior in your home
