Common use of TEC Assessment Clause in Contracts

TEC Assessment. Calculate the base energy consumption by multiplying the measured power consumption as specified in this test procedure by the hours per day values in the equations below. If the EUT does not include the capability for Auto Power Down, then use the first equation (a). If the product does include Auto Power Down capability, and it meets the requirements in Annex A (A.3; A.4), then use the second equation (b). POn, PStandby and PAPD are power levels in ▇▇▇▇▇ as measured according to the measurement procedure set out in this Annex C. (a) Annual energy (kWh/yr) for a product with no Auto Power Down kWhBase = 0.365 x (TOn x POn + TStandby x P Standby ) (b) Annual energy (kWh/yr) for a product with Auto Power Down capability kWhBase = 0.365 x (TOn x POn + TStandby.x PStandby . + TAPD x PAPD) kWhBase = 0.365 * ( 9 * 24.0 + 15 * 15.0) = 161 kWh/year kWhBase = 0.365 * ( 4.5 * 24.0 + 15 * 15.0 + 4.5 * 3.0) = 126.5 kWh/year If the annual TEC assessed for the product is less than the annual Energy Allowance calculated from Annex D below, then the product is compliant with the energy consumption targets of this Voluntary Agreement.
