Electricity Parameters
Site electricity parameters allow Pulse to calculate net profitability, taking into account actual electricity costs. Without this data, the Income widget only shows gross income without deducting expenses.
Parameters
Electricity rate
The cost of one kWh of electricity at your site. Specified in the selected currency.
Example: If you pay 0.07 USD per kWh, enter 0.07 and select USD as the currency.
Currency
The currency in which the rate is specified and in which income is displayed. Major world currencies are supported: USD, EUR, RUB, CNY, and others.
Capacity
The maximum installed capacity of the site in MW. Used to calculate load in the Power widget on the Dashboard.
Example: If your site is designed for 5 MW and currently consumes 3.2 MW, the Power widget will show "3.2 MW / 5 MW" and a visual load indicator.
How Parameters are Used in Calculations
Income Calculation (Income)
Net Income = Gross Mining Income − Electricity Costs
Costs = Total Consumption (kW) × Period Duration (h) × Rate ($/kWh)
The result is displayed in the Income widget on the Dashboard:
- Main value — net income for the selected period
- Line "Electricity: ~N $" — approximate electricity costs
- Tooltip explains the calculation formula
The calculation is approximate — it is based on consumption data that Pulse receives from devices. The actual electricity bill may differ.
Where to Configure
Electricity parameters are set in the site settings:
- Go to the Sites section
- Click ⋯ next to the desired site → Edit
- Update the Electricity rate, Currency, and Capacity fields
- Click Save
Changes are applied immediately and reflected on the Dashboard with the next data update.
Creation and Configuration
A Site is the top level of the hierarchy in HashCore Pulse. It represents a physical or logical object: a mining farm, a data center, a separate building, or a dedicated segment of equipment. All agents, devices, and metrics are tied to a specific site.
Operation Throttling
Operation Throttling is a mechanism that controls the speed of sending group commands to devices. `v0.9.0` Instead of sending a command to all devices simultaneously, Pulse breaks the operation into packets and pauses between them.
