The miner is consuming power because of its fans, which are probably still spinning at full speed due to the internal temp. Once the chips start cooling off, the SoC controller should regulate the fans to a lower speed accordingly (and even go into an idle state iirc). I would hesitate to immediately shut-down the miner before letting it cool off. Try giving it a little while before checking the power consumption after the internet goes out. If your internet is always intermittent, then your solution probably lies in finding a better ISP. That's just my two cents.
