1. Energy efficiency classes U.K.
The energy efficiency class of a vacuum cleaner shall be determined in accordance with its annual energy consumption as set out in Table 1. The annual energy consumption of a vacuum cleaner shall be determined in accordance with Annex VI.
Table 1
Energy efficiency classes
| Energy Efficiency Class | Annual energy consumption (AE) [kWh/yr] | |
|---|---|---|
| Label 1 | Label 2 | |
| A+++ | n/a | AE ≤ 10,0 |
| A++ | n/a | 10,0 < AE ≤ 16,0 |
| A+ | n/a | 16,0 < AE ≤ 22,0 |
| A | AE ≤ 28,0 | 22,0 < AE ≤ 28,0 |
| B | 28,0 < AE ≤ 34,0 | 28,0 < AE ≤ 34,0 |
| C | 34,0 < AE ≤ 40,0 | 34,0 < AE ≤ 40,0 |
| D | 40,0 < AE ≤ 46,0 | AE > 40,0 |
| E | 46,0 < AE ≤ 52,0 | n/a |
| F | 52,0 < AE ≤ 58,0 | n/a |
| G | AE > 58,0 | n/a |
