Scope

This Regulation establishes requirements for the labelling and the provision of supplementary product information for televisions.

"television" means a television set or a television monitor;
"television set" means a product designed primarily for the display and reception of audiovisual signals which is placed on the market under one model or system designation, and which consists of:

(a) a display;
(b) one or more tuner(s)/receiver(s) and optional additional functions for data storage and/or display such as digital versatile disc (DVD), hard disk drive (HDD) or videocassette recorder (VCR), either in a single unit combined with the display, or in one or more separate units;

"television monitor" means a product designed to display on an integrated screen a video signal from a variety of sources, including television broadcast signals, which optionally controls and reproduces audio signals from an external source device, which is linked through standardised video signal paths including cinch (component, composite), SCART, HDMI, and future wireless standards (but excluding non-standardised video signal paths like DVI and SDI), but cannot receive and process broadcast signals;

Test Procedure

Test Procedure

EN 50301

Associated Test Procedure

For the purposes of compliance and verification of compliance with the requirements of this Regulation, measurements shall be made using a reliable, accurate and reproducible measurement procedure that takes into account the generally recognised state-of-the-art measurement methods, including methods set out in documents the reference numbers of which have been published for that purpose in the Official Journal of the European Union. Annex VII defines measurement conditions for on-mode power consumption, standby/off-mode power consumption and peak luminance.

Additional Information

This Regulation shall apply from 30 November 2011. However, Article 3(1)(d) and (e) and Article 4(b), (c) and (d) shall apply from 30 March 2012.

Energy efficiency class
The energy efficiency class of a television shall be determined on the basis of its Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) as set out in Table 1. The Energy Efficiency Index of a television shall be determined in accordance with point 1 of Annex II.

Table 1:
Energy efficiency class of a television
Energy efficiency class | Energy Efficiency Index |
A+++ (most efficient) | EEI < 0,10 |
A++ | 0,10 ≤ EEI < 0,16 |
A+ | 0,16 ≤ EEI < 0,23 |
A | 0,23 ≤ EEI < 0,30 |
B | 0,30 ≤ EEI < 0,42 |
C | 0,42 ≤ EEI < 0,60 |
D | 0,60 ≤ EEI < 0,80 |
E | 0,80 ≤ EEI < 0,90 |
F | 0,90 ≤ EEI < 1,00 |
G (least efficient) | 1,00 ≤ EEI |
(see pages 21-26 of the Regulation)

The following information shall be included in the label:
I. supplier's name or trade mark;
II. supplier's model identifier, where "model identifier" means the code, usually alphanumeric, which distinguishes a specific television model from other models of the same trade mark or supplier's name;
III. the energy efficiency class of the television, determined in accordance with Annex I. The head of the arrow containing the energy efficiency class of the television shall be placed at the same height as the head of the arrow of the relevant energy efficiency class;
IV. on-mode power consumption in Watts, rounded to the first integer;
V. annual on-mode energy consumption calculated in accordance with point 2 of Annex II, in kWh, rounded to the first integer;
VI. visible screen diagonal in inches and centimetres.
For televisions with an easily visible switch, which puts the television in a condition with power consumption not exceeding 0,01 Watts when operated to the off position, the symbol defined in point 8 of point 5 may be added.
Where a model has been granted a "European Union Ecolabel" under Regulation (EC) No 66/2010, a copy of the EU Ecolabel may be added.
