FAQs about EAc1.4 :

Does my piece of equipment qualify for Energy Star? Is there an Energy Star label for my piece of equipment? Where can I find out more about Energy Star and how it relates to my equipment type?

There is not an Energy Star category for a very specific type of an appliance that fits within a broader appliance category. Can I exclude my product?

Rated Power

Is there a way to calculate rated power? I am trying to find the rated power of a printer. I called the manufacturer and they do not know, but I have some informatoin regarding power usage from the product data sheet. Does anyone know how to use this information when documenting the credit? Thanks! Power Consumption: Active: 445 watts; Ready: 18 watts; Sleep: 6.7 watts; Off: 0.48 watts Typical Electricity Consumption (TEC): 1.937 kWh/Week

Lauren, You can use either 445 watts as your rated power, or you can use the value from Table 2, which is 250 watts for office laser printers (pg. 179 of the Reference Guide). There's a discussion of this issue at the bottom of this page; I'd link to it for you if I knew how!
