(a) (2) For each basic model of portable air conditioner, a sample of sufficient size must be randomly selected and tested to ensure that— (i) Any represented value of energy consumption or other measure of energy consumption of a basic model for which consumers would favor lower values is greater than or equal to the higher of: (A) The mean of the sample: Or, (B) The upper 95 percent confidence limit (UCL) of the true mean divided by 1.10: And, (ii) Any represented value of the combined energy efficiency ratio or other measure of energy consumption of a basic model for which consumers would favor higher values is less than or equal to the lower of: (A) The mean of the sample: Or, (B) The lower 95 percent confidence limit (LCL) of the true mean divided by 0.90: And, (3) When testing in accordance with appendix CC of subpart B of part 430 of this chapter, the represented value of cooling capacity for a single-speed portable AC shall be seasonally adjusted cooling capacity (“SACC”) and the represented value of cooling capacity for a variable-speed portable AC shall be full-load seasonally adjusted cooling capacity (“SACC (4) Where SACC is used for representation, the represented value of SACC of a basic model must be the mean of the SACC for each tested unit of the basic model. Likewise, where SACC (5) The represented value of combined energy efficiency ratio or annualized energy efficiency ratio of a basic model must be rounded to the nearest 0.1 Btu/Wh.
