I'm currently facing a 2,000W consumption, and have no idea why.
5 x 480 RS; ASRock H81 Pro BTC; Intel Celeron G1840; 4 GB RAM.
OS: Win 10; Claymore.
PSU is a (probably?) pretty outdated Club 3D 1200W from 2011. Might a new one help?
Or are you aware of any other known issues with the said system?
Becoming kind of desperate.
Edit:
Consumption is about 1,800 with ethOS; but that's not overwhelming either.

Maybe you need to test with a different meter at the wall? There's no way your system should pull more then 1000 watts at the wall at stock settings of ~150 watts per GPU. Just to rule things out, how are you determining the power consumption?
Also checked, if maybe one of the 5 GPUs is pulling unusually much itself. But running it with 4 GPUs reduces the consumption for about 350 Watts to ~1650 Watts.
The meter itself is a pretty standard one. http://imgur.com/a/ADIPH
