The product group 'notebook computers' shall comprise devices which have the following characteristics: A. they perform logical operations and process data and are designed specifically for portability and to be operated for extended periods of time either with or without a direct connection to an AC power source; B. they utilise an integrated computer display and are capable of operation off an integrated battery or other portable power source. If a notebook computer is delivered with an external power supply this power supply is considered part of the notebook computer. For the purpose of this Decision; tablet personal computers; which may use touch-sensitive screens along with or instead of other input devices shall be considered notebook computers. Digital picture frames shall not be considered notebook computers for the purpose of this Decision.

The product group 'televisions' shall comprise: Mains powered electronic equipment; the primary purpose and function of which is to receive; decode and display TV transmission signals.

The product group 'electrically driven; gas driven or gas absorption heat pumps' shall comprise heat pumps; which can concentrate energy present in the air; ground or water into useful heat for the supply of space heating or the opposite process for space cooling. A 'heat pump' is the device or set of devices as delivered by the manufacturer or importer to the distributor; retailer or installer. This delivery may or may not include the delivery of circulating pumps at the sink or source side; however for calculation of coefficient of performance -COP; values the power consumption of circulating pumps shall always be taken into account; according to the methodology of EN14511:2004; if the manufacturer cannot provide data; a default value is taken. For gas absorption heat pumps the methodology shall be according to EN12309-2:2000. The product group shall cover only electrically driven; gas driven or gas absorption heat pumps with a maximum heating capacity of 100 kW. The product group 'electrically driven; gas driven or gas absorption heat pumps' shall not cover the following: heat pumps which can only provide hot water for sanitary use; and heat pumps which can only extract heat from a building and eject it to the air; ground or water thus resulting in space cooling.

This Regulation establishes requirements for the labelling and the provision of supplementary product information for electric mains-operated air conditioners with a rated capacity of ≤ 12 kW for cooling, or heating, if the product has no cooling function.

This Regulation establishes requirements for the energy labelling of; and the provision of supplementary product information on; space heaters and combination heaters with a rated heat output equal to 70 kW; packages of space heater equal to 70 kW; temperature control and solar device and packages of combination heater equal to 70 kW; temperature control and solar device.

This Policy is under review by the European Commission and is expected to be revised in 2024.

This Regulation establishes requirements for the labelling and the provision of supplementary product information for domestic electric and gas ovens; including when incorporated into cookers; and for domestic electric range hoods; including when sold for non-domestic purposes.
