What percentage of energy do electrical appliances use when on standy? I’m aware that energy is still being used when a tv or set top box is on standby; but some quaters are peddling info bout energy being used when an appliance eg phone charger or hair dryer is plugged in although the socket switch is off!! If this is true what percentage? Almost .001%?

It really depends on the device. Although there are standards, the amount of minimum current required is usually included in the specification manual of your device or you can download the specs at the manufacturer website.
