Peak luminous intensity [cd] 10 The determined value shall not deviate from the declared value by more than 25 %.

For light sources with linear geometry which are scalable but of very long length, such as LED strips or strings, verification testing of market surveillance authorities shall consider a length of 50 cm, or, if the light source is not scalable there, the nearest value to 50 cm. The light source supplier shall indicate which control gear is suitable for this length.

When verifying if a product is a light source, market surveillance authorities shall compare the measured values for chromaticity coordinates (x and y), luminous flux, luminous flux density, and colour rendering index directly with the limit values set out in the definition for light source of Article 2 of this Regulation, without applying any tolerances. If any of the 10 units in the sample satisfies the conditions for being a light source, the product model shall be considered to be a light source.

Light sources that allow the end-user to control, manually or automatically, directly or remotely, the luminous intensity, colour, correlated colour temperature, spectrum, and/or beam angle of the emitted light shall be evaluated using the reference control setting.’

“-”: not applicable;

“yes”: an equivalence claim involving the power of a replaced light source type may be given only:

— for directional light sources, if the light source type is listed in Table 4 and if the luminous flux of the light source in a 90° cone (Φ90°) is not lower than the corresponding reference luminous flux in Table 4. The reference luminous flux shall be multiplied by the correction factor in Table 5. For LED light sources, it shall be in addition multiplied by the correction factor in Table 6,

— for non-directional light sources, the claimed equivalent incandescent light source power (in watt, rounded to the integer) shall be that corresponding in Table 7 to the luminous flux of the light source.

The intermediate values of both the luminous flux and the claimed equivalent light source power (in watt, rounded to the integer) shall be calculated by linear interpolation between the two adjacent values.

[^ntr4-L_2021068EN.01008701-E0005]: “-”: not applicable;

“yes”: Claim that a LED light source replaces a fluorescent light source without integrated ballast of a particular wattage. This claim may be made only if:

— the luminous intensity in any direction around the tube axis does not deviate by more than 25 % from the average luminous intensity around the tube,and

— the luminous flux of the LED light source is not lower than the luminous flux of the fluorescent light source of the claimed wattage. The luminous flux of the fluorescent light source shall be obtained by multiplying the claimed wattage with the minimum luminous efficacy value corresponding to the fluorescent light source in Table 8, and

— the wattage of the LED light source is not higher than the wattage of the fluorescent light source it is claimed to replace.

The technical documentation file shall provide the data to support such claims.

  • (i) for 4-star compartments, the freezing time to bring the temperature of the light load from +25 to – 18 °C at an ambient temperature of 25 °C shall be such that the resulting freezing capacity complies with the requirement in Annex I, point 4;’;
  • ‘(k) the light load weight for each 4-star compartment shall be:
  • — 3,5 kg/100 l of the volume of the 4-star compartment evaluated, rounded up to the nearest 0,5 kg, and

in the case that the refrigerating appliance includes a combination of 3- and 4-star compartments, the sum of the light load weights shall be increased so that the sum of the light load weights for all the 4-star compartments shall be:

  • — 3,5 kg/100 l of the total volume of all 4- and 3-star compartments, rounded up to the nearest 0,5 kg, and

‘The verification tolerances defined in this Annex relate only to the verification by Member State authorities of the declared values and shall not be used by the supplier as an allowed tolerance to establish the values in the technical documentation or in interpreting these values with a view to achieving compliance or to communicate better performance by any means. The values and classes published on the label or in the product information sheet shall not be more favourable for the supplier than the values declared in the technical documentation.’;

  • ‘(7) The Member State authorities shall provide all relevant information to the authorities of the other Member States and to the Commission without delay after a decision is taken on the non-compliance of the model according to points 3, 6 or the second paragraph of this Annex.’;

ANNEX V

Annexes I, II, IV, V, VI and IX to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/2017 are amended as follows:

  • ‘(24) “declared values” means the values provided by the supplier for the stated, calculated or measured technical parameters, pursuant to Article 3(3) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 and in accordance with Article 3(1)(d) and Annex VI of this Regulation, for the verification of compliance by the Member State authorities.’;

‘Where a parameter is declared pursuant to Article 3(3) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 and in accordance with Table 4 of Annex VI, its declared value shall be used by the supplier for the calculations in this Annex.’;

‘2.   CLEANING PERFORMANCE INDEX

For the calculation of the cleaning performance index (IC) of a household dishwasher model, the cleaning performance of the eco programme is compared to the cleaning performance of a reference dishwasher.

The IC is calculated as follows and rounded to three decimal places:

IC = exp (ln IC)

and

ln IC = (1/n) × Σn i = 1 ln (CT,i/CR,i)

where:

CT,i is the cleaning performance of the eco programme of the household dishwasher under test for one test run (i), rounded to three decimal places;

CR,i is the cleaning performance of the reference dishwasher for one test run (i), rounded to three decimal places;

n is the number of test runs.

  1. DRYING PERFORMANCE INDEX

For the calculation of the drying performance index (ID) of a household dishwasher model, the drying performance of the eco programme is compared to the drying performance of the reference dishwasher.

The ID is calculated as follows and rounded to three decimal places:

ID = exp (ln ID)

and

ln ID = (1/n) × Σn i = 1 ln(ID,i)

where:

ID,i is the drying performance index of the eco programme of the household dishwasher under test for one test run (i);

n is the number of combined cleaning and drying test runs.

The ID,i is calculated as follows and rounded to three decimal places:

ln ID,i = ln (DT,i/DR,t)

where:

DT,i is the average drying performance score of the eco programme of the household dishwasher under test for one test run (i), rounded to three decimal places;

DR,t is the target drying score of the reference dishwasher, rounded to three decimal places.

  1. LOW POWER MODES

Where applicable, the power consumption of the off mode (Po), standby mode (Psm) and delay start (Pds) are measured, expressed in W, and rounded to two decimal places.

During measurements of the power consumption in low power modes, the following shall be checked and recorded:

— the display or not of information,

— the activation or not of a network connection.’;
