1. Energy Eiciency 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 specied in the following table:
Table 3-4 Typical Energy Consumption (TEC) values
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 gure presented on the label is the data measured with the representative
conguration that covers all the congurations in the registration unit which is selected according to
“The Regulation of the Implementation on China Energy Label for Microcomputers". Thus, actual energy
consumption of this specic 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 conguration.
The categorization of products complies with the regulations in the following table:
Table
3-5 Product category and conguration description
Product Type Conguration Description
Desktop microcomputer, AIO Portable Computer
Category A The desktop microcomputer and AIO whose
conguration is out of the scope of Category
B, C, and D
The portable computer whose conguration is
out of the scope of Category B and C
