I would guess he's referring to an Inertial Navigation System.

PCB stands for Printed Circuit Board.

Measure the supply voltage and supply current for each pcb. Multiply together and record. Repeat for each pcb.

wudnt that merely be the power input to the pcbs. i wish to know, how much each pcb or infact each component and then the whole system dissipates power during its operation.

the temperature to be maintained for the system is 55 to 60 c.
