Abstract: For solution of the problem of increasing the efficiency of energy consumption of a group of personal computers, the method based on the system approach is presented. The interaction of both a separate switching power supply and the whole groups of power grids is studied. The results of modeling obtained in the Matlab + Simulink medium are given. The efficiency of the use of power correction factor in a single switching power supply is shown. The results of the studies are recommended to be used in organization of optimal interaction of computers with a power grid.

Keywords: system approach, energy conservation, power correction factor, power grid, switching power supply.
