For one of our overseas project we needed appliances that were 50 Hz; 220-240V. We did not find any Energy Star Products for this specific voltage but made sure that we use “A” energy rated products. Is there any documentation that I can submit to earn this credit?

Many Thanks!

I think that there has been a number of posts in the forum related to demonstrating equivalency between Energy Star and other standards, you should attempt to do so. Focus on energy use.

You didn't say which appliance categorty, but....IF it is commercial kitchen equipment, most manufacturers will have 50 cycle spec sheets available. Those, combined with the LEED Prescriptive information on Fisher Nickel's website which has the standards per appliance, should help. This page would have the most up to date Energy Star Standard information. There are a few recent categories and some updates.
