United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

F2When verifying the compliance of a product model with the requirements laid down in this Regulation, for the requirements referred to in this Annex the authorities of Great Britain must apply the following procedure—

  1. (1)

    The F3Great Britain authorities shall verify one single unit of the model.

  2. (2)

    The model shall be considered to comply with the applicable requirements if:

    1. (a)

      the values given in the technical documentation pursuant to F4paragraph 1(2) of Part 1 of Schedule 1A to the Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products Regulations 2010, and, where applicable, the values used to calculate these values, are not more favourable for the manufacturer or importer than the results of the corresponding measurements carried out pursuant to F5paragraph 1(2)(b)(vii) of Part 1 of Schedule 1A to those Regulations; and

    2. (b)

      the declared values meet any requirements laid down in this Regulation, and any required product information published by the manufacturer or importer does not contain values that are more favourable for the manufacturer or importer than the declared values; and

    3. (c)

      when the Great Britain authorities test the unit of the model, the determined values (the values of the relevant parameters as measured in testing and the values calculated from these measurements) comply with the respective verification tolerances as given in the table below.

  3. (3)

    If the results referred to in point 2(a) or (b) are not achieved, the model shall be considered not to comply with this Regulation.

  4. (4)

    If the result referred to in point 2(c) is not achieved, the Great Britain authorities shall select three additional units of the same model for testing.

  5. (5)

    The model shall be considered to comply with the applicable requirements if, for these three units, the arithmetical mean of the determined values complies with the respective verification tolerances given in the table below.

  6. (6)

    If the result referred to in point 5 is not achieved, the model shall be considered not to comply with this Regulation.

  7. (7)

    F6...

The Great Britain authorities shall use the measurement and calculation methods set out in point 8 of Annex II and in part 2 of this Annex. The Great Britain authorities shall only apply the verification tolerances that are set out in the table below and shall only use the procedure described in points 1 to F76 for the requirements referred to in this Annex. No other tolerances, such as those set out in F8designated standards or in any other measurement method, shall be applied.

Verification tolerances

Type of requirement Category Tolerance
Annex II, points 1(a) and (b), or points 2(a) and (b) For power consumption requirements above 1,00 W The determined value shall not exceed the declared value by more than 10 %.
For power consumption requirements less than or equal to 1,00 W The determined value shall not exceed the declared value by more than 0,10 W.
Annex II, points 3(c) and 4(a) n/a The determined value shall not exceed the declared value by more than 10 %.
