CI-2009 EAc1.4:Optimize Energy Performance—Equipment and Appliances

Energy star Equipment documentation

Hi, While documenting energy star rated products for EAc1.4, the rated power is to be used. My understanding is that this is the name plate power for the appliance. However, if a situation where the rated power is not available, will USGBC allow the use of generalized wattage rating (from a legitimate online source) for those products? If yes, how should this be documented? If not, how do I work around this?

Kalyan, the Bird's Eye View text above delves into this question to some degree. I would be skeptical about using a source like what you describe, but a more concrete example of what you mean would help.
