SCHEDULE 1METHOD FOR CALCULATING THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION OF AN APPLIANCE AND PROCEDURE FOR CHECKING CONFORMITY

PART ICALCULATION OF MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION

5.  The adjusted volume (Vadj) of a refrigeration appliance shall be defined as:

Vadj = ΣVc × Wc × Fc × Cc

  • where Tc is the design temperature in each compartment (in °C);

  • where Vc is the net volume of a given type of compartment in the appliance and Fc is a factor which equals 1.2 for no-frost compartments and 1 for other compartments;

  • Cc = 1 for refrigeration appliances belonging to the normal (N) and subnormal (SN) climate classes;

  • CC = Xc for refrigeration appliances belonging to the sub-tropical (ST) climate class;

  • Cc = Yc for refrigeration appliances belonging to the tropical (T) climate class.
