A Quarry should be powered with at least 20 RF/t, though more energy will help it run faster. Its maximum power consumption is 1000 RF/t but its speed is not linear to the power input; a Quarry using 1000 RF/t is not twice as fast as one powered by 500 RF/t.

What power does a Quarry use?

The quarry uses a minimum of 2MJ/t and a maximum of 32MJ/t to move its head continuously, and a flat 60MJ to break each block. At the minimum energy usage it moves 0.11002blocks/tick (9.089ticks/block) therefore using an average of 6.6012MJ/t (60MJ/block*0.11002blocks/t).
