OpenStudio Results - Plant Loop Details correct?

Hi,

I am running a simple single chiller, single air handler simulation. I noticed that in OpenStudio Results under Plant Loops Detail for my "CH-1 Loop" under OS:Pump:VariableSpeed, 215 gal/min are reported for Object, Sizing and Sizing Units, which is correct. However, under Description, Value and Value Units, there are Rated Power Consumption and 215 W. This is not correct, as the rated power consumption on this pump (as also entered in the HVAC Systems tab) is 4,120.57 W. Is OpenStudio just reporting this wrongly, or is it using it wrongly as well?

Thanks,

Matt Koch
