Division 2 Technical parameters of water heaters
United Kingdom
The following parameters shall be calculated for water heaters under average climate conditions:
- (a)
the water heating energy efficiency ηwh in %, rounded to one decimal place;
- (b)
the annual electricity consumption AEC in kWh in terms of final energy, rounded to the nearest integer;
in addition, for water heaters using fuels under average climate conditions:
- (c)
the annual fuel consumption AFC in kWh in terms of GCV, rounded to the nearest integer;
in addition, for solar water heaters under average climate conditions:
- (d)
the heat generator water heating energy efficiency ηwh,nonsol in %, rounded to one decimal place;
- (e)
the annual auxiliary electricity consumption Qaux in kWh in terms of final energy, rounded to one decimal place;
in addition, for solar water heaters and heat pump water heaters under colder and warmer climate conditions:
- (f)
the parameters set out in points (a) to (c);
in addition for solar water heaters under average, colder and warmer climate conditions:
- (g)
the annual non-solar heat contribution Qnonsol in kWh in terms of primary energy for electricity and/or in kWh in terms of GCV for fuels, rounded to one decimal place.
