# The Energy Information (Household Air Conditioners) (No. 2) Regulations 2005, Regulation 6: Placing on the market: technical documentation


(1) No supplier shall place on the market a regulated appliance unless he has established technical documentation in relation to the appliance sufficient to enable the accuracy of the information contained in a label or information sheet supplied by him in respect of the appliance to be assessed.
(2) The technical documentation referred to in paragraph (1) shall include—
(a) the name and address of the supplier;
(b) a general description of the model, sufficient for it to be uniquely and easily identified;
(c) information, including drawings as relevant, on the main design features of the model and, in particular, items which appreciably affect its energy consumption;
(d) the results of design calculations carried out, where these are relevant;
(e) reports of relevant measurement tests carried out under the test procedures of the harmonised standard and, where available, those carried out by relevant notified organisations as defined under other Community legislation ;
(f) operating instructions, if any,
and, where the information relating to a particular model combination has been obtained by calculation on the basis of design, extrapolation from other combinations or both, it shall include details of such calculations, extrapolations or both, as the case may be, and of tests undertaken to verify the accuracy of the calculations made (details of the mathematical model for calculating performance of split systems, and of measurements taken to verify this model).
(3) Where values are derived from those obtained from similar models, the information required under paragraph (2) for those models shall also be provided.
(4) For the purposes of paragraphs (1), (2) and (3), a supplier may use documentation already required on the basis of relevant Community legislation.
(5) A supplier shall make the technical documentation relating to a regulated appliance available for inspection by enforcement authorities for a period ending five years after the last appliance of the model in question has been manufactured.
