I am using nRF51422 development kit. 
 I tried Beacon app example code.It consume around 195uA. How to reduce the power consumption. 
 I am also checked in your website this application is not power optimized. please refer this link</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 17 Aug 2016 07:35:49 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/15784/beacon-power-optimization" /><item><title>RE: Beacon Power Optimization</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/60241?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 Aug 2016 07:35:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:112d09a1-359e-4ba5-a2af-43340dcd8f99</guid><dc:creator>Murugan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you very much.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Beacon Power Optimization</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/60240?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 Aug 2016 06:56:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:8f9ce16b-e610-4160-9c15-304ab5a40f00</guid><dc:creator>Stefan Birnir Sverrisson</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Murugan&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can obtain lower power for the beacon by choosing larger advertising interval, but it is a tradeoff of responsiveness of your beacon, i.e. how quickly you detect the beacon from a BLE central device. You can also change the transmission power, but that will decrease the range of the beacon. The expected current consumption is described on &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/75237/power-consumption-fine-tuning/?answer=75449#post-id-75449"&gt;this thread&lt;/a&gt;, and I think what you measure with the default beacon example is what to expect.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
