Customer mentioned that although the max-power is configured on the FPC still when they checked max-power consumed its exceeding the configured value.

FPC Config:

fpc 4 {
max-power 1300;
}



Router> show chassis fpc detail 

Slot 4 information:

Checked the same in the local lab and same observation was seen.

Lab Testing:
==========

---(refreshed at 2026-02-19 00:29:17 JST)---

 Max power consumption      1300 Watts

 Max power consumption      1150 Watts

---(refreshed at 2026-02-19 00:29:19 JST)---

 Max power consumption      2600 Watts<<<<<<<<<<Power showing higher then configuration

 Max power consumption      1150 Watts


 We could see the max power consumption exceeding the configured value once.

 

fpc 3 {

  max-power 1300;

}

fpc 6 {

  max-power 1300;

}
