STBs have different requirements if they are designed for free-to-air (FTA) broadcast television or subscription television (STV).

Class 1 Computer monitors with a diagonal screen size less than 76 cm (30 inches) and a screen resolution less than or equal to 1.1 MegaPixels. Class 2 Computer monitors with a diagonal screen size less than 76 cm (30 inches) and a screen resolution greater than 1.1 MegaPixels. Class 3 Computer monitors with a diagonal screen size equal to or greater than 76 cm (30 inches) and equal to or less than 152 cm (60 inches)." "

The energy efficiency index, or EEI, of a refrigerated cabinet that is covered by this instrument is calculated in accordance with the following formula:

where:

AEC is the refrigerated cabinet’s annual energy consumption, in kWh per year, and is calculated in accordance with section 26.

RAEC is the refrigerated cabinet’s reference annual energy consumption, in kWh per year, and is calculated in accordance with section 26.

Note: For refrigerated cabinets that are covered by this instrument, other than low sales volume and/or oversize RDCs and low sales volume RSCs, the reference annual energy consumption is equal to the standard annual energy consumption, which represents the energy consumption of a standard cabinet of the relevant type.

For low sales volume and/or oversize RDCs and low sales volume RSCs, the reference annual energy consumption is equal to the base annual energy consumption, which reflects the energy consumption of a reference low‑efficiency version of a cabinet of the relevant type.

GEMS level requirements:

Star Ratings: 

(g) welding transformers; (h) three phase transformers with three or more windings per phase; (i) arc-furnace transformers; (j) earthing transformers; (k) rectifier or converter transformers; (l) uninterruptible power supply (ups) transformers; (m) transformers with an impedance less than 3% or more than 8%; (n) voltage regulating transformers; (o) transformers designed for frequencies other than 50 hertz; (p) gas-filled dry-type transformers; or (q) flameproof transformers.

MEPS does not apply to submersible motors, integral motor-gear systems, variable or multi-speed speed motors or those rated only for short duty cycles (IEC60034-2 duty rating S2).

(f) with a lamp ballast connected to a 230 volt 50 hertz single phase or similar mains supply.
