Test procedures for the measurement of energy and water consumption.

CFR · 2024-01-01 · US · Title 10

When the test procedures of this section call for rounding off of test results, and the results fall equally between two values of the nearest dollar, kilowatt-hour, or other specified nearest value, the result shall be rounded up to the nearest higher value. (a) (i) The representative average-use cycle of 365 cycles per year; (ii) The average per-cycle energy consumption for the standard cycle in kilowatt-hours per cycle, determined according to appendix A of this subpart; and (iii) The representative average unit cost of electricity in dollars per kilowatt-hour as provided by the Secretary. (2) The estimated annual operating cost for models with an anti-sweat heater switch shall be the product of the following three factors, with the resulting product then being rounded to the nearest dollar per year: (i) The representative average-use cycle of 365 cycles per year; (ii) Half the sum of the average per-cycle energy consumption for the standard cycle and the average per-cycle energy consumption for a test cycle type with the anti-sweat heater switch in the position set at the factory just before shipping, each in kilowatt-hours per cycle, determined according to appendix A of this subpart; and (iii) The representative average unit cost of electricity in dollars per kilowatt-hour as provided by the Secretary. (3) The estimated annual operating cost for any other specified cycle type shall be the product of the following three factors, the resulting product then being rounded t
