designed for the EU include a Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuitry in accord with European
standard regulation code EN61000-3-2. By altering the input current wave shape, PFC improves
the power factor of the power supply and results in increased energy effi ciency, reduced heat loss,
prolonged life for power distribution and consumption equipment, and improved output voltage
stability.]
