China PC energy label
In accordance with “The Regulation of the Implementation on China Energy Label for
Microcomputers” (CEL-30), this microcomputer has an Energy Efficiency Label. The energy efficiency
grade, TEC (Typical Energy Consumption), and product category presented on the label are
determined and calculated according to the standard GB28380-2012.
1. Energy Efficiency Grades
The grade is determined by the standard with the calculation of base consumption level with the
sum of all the allowances for additional components such as main memory and graphics card.
For products of any grade, the TEC should not exceed the value specified in the following table:
Product Type TEC (kilowatt hour)
Grade 1 Grade 2 Grade 3
Desktop microcomputer, AIO Category A 98.0+∑Efa 148.0+∑Efa 198.0+∑Efa
Category B 125.0+∑Efa 175.0+∑Efa 225.0+∑Efa
Category C 159.0+∑Efa 209.0+∑Efa 259.0+∑Efa
Category D 184.0+∑Efa 234.0+∑Efa 284.0+∑Efa
Portable Computer Category A 20.0+∑Efa 35.0+∑Efa 45.0+∑Efa
Category B 26.0+∑Efa 45.0+∑Efa 65.0+∑Efa
Category C 54.5+∑Efa 75.0+∑Efa 123.5+∑Efa
NOTE: ∑Efa is the sum of power factor of product additional functions.
2. Typical Energy Consumption
The energy consumption figure presented on the label is the data measured with the
representative configuration that covers all the configurations in the registration unit which is
selected according to CEL-30. Thus, actual energy consumption of this specific microcomputer
may not be the same as the TEC data presented in the label.
3. Product Category
The product category is determined by the standard according to the microcomputer’s
configuration. The categorization of products complies with the regulations in the following table:
Product Type Configuration Description
Desktop microcomputer, AIO Portable Computer
Category A The desktop microcomputer and AIO
whose configuration is out of the scope of
Category B, C, and D
The portable computer whose configuration
is out of the scope of Category B and C
Category B CPU physical core number of 2, and
system memory of not less than 2GB
A Discrete GPU
Category C CPU physical core number of over 2, with
at least one of the following features:
