# Commission Regulation (EC) No 1275/2008 of 17 December 2008 implementing Directive 2005/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for standby and off mode, and networked standby, electric power consumption of electrical and electronic household and office equipment (Text with EEA relevance), Division 9: Information to be provided by manufacturers

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

For the purposes of conformity assessment pursuant to Article 4, the technical documentation shall contain the following elements:
(a) for each standby and/or off mode:
the power consumption data in Watt rounded to the first decimal place,
the measurement method used,
a description of how the equipment mode was selected or programmed,
the sequence of events leading to the condition where the equipment automatically changes modes,
any notes regarding the operation of the equipment, e.g. information on how the user switches the equipment into a condition having networked standby,
if applicable, the default time after which the power management function, or similar function, has switched the equipment into the applicable low power mode or condition;
(b) for networked equipment:
the number and type of network ports and, with the exception of wireless network ports, where these ports are located on the equipment; in particular it shall be declared if the same physical network port accommodates two or more types of network ports,
whether all network ports are deactivated before delivery,
whether the equipment qualifies as HiNA equipment or equipment with HiNa functionality; where no information is provided, this is considered not to be the case;
and for each type of network port:
the default time after which the power management function, or a similar function, switches the equipment into a condition providing networked standby,
the trigger that is used to reactivate the equipment,
the (maximum) performance specifications,
the (maximum) power consumption of the equipment in a condition providing networked standby into which the power management function, or a similar function, will switch the equipment, if only this port is used for remote activation,
the communication protocol used by the equipment;
If no information is provided, the equipment is considered not to be networked equipment unless it provides the functionalities of a router, network switch, wireless network access point (not being a terminal), hub, modem, VoIP telephone, video phone.
(c) test parameters for measurements:
ambient temperature,
test voltage in V and frequency in Hz,
total harmonic distortion of the electricity supply system,
information and documentation on the instrumentation, set-up and circuits used for electrical testing;
(d) the equipment characteristics relevant for assessing conformity with the requirements set out in point 1(c), or the requirements set out in points 2(c) and/or 2(d) and/or 3(b), as applicable, including the time taken to automatically reach standby, or off mode, or another condition which does not exceed the applicable power consumption requirements for off mode and/or standby mode.
In particular, if applicable, a technical justification shall be provided that the requirements set out in point 1(c), or the requirements set out in points 2(c) and/or 2(d) and/or 3(b), are inappropriate for the intended use of equipment. The need to maintain one or more network connections or to wait for a remotely initiated trigger is not considered a technical justification for exemption from the requirements set out in 2(d) in the case of equipment that is not defined as networked equipment by the manufacturer.
