Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/1782 of 1 October 2019 laying down ecodesign requirements for external power supplies pursuant to Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 278/2009 (Text with EEA relevance)
When the UK left the EU, legislation.gov.uk published EU legislation that had been published by the EU up to IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.). On legislation.gov.uk, these items of legislation are kept up-to-date with any amendments made by the UK since then.
Legislation.gov.uk publishes the UK version. EUR-Lex publishes the EU version. The EU Exit Web Archive holds a snapshot of EUR-Lex’s version from IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.).
There are currently no known outstanding effects for the Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/1782, Division 2..
Revised legislation carried on this site may not be fully up to date. At the current time any known changes or effects made by subsequent legislation have been applied to the text of the legislation you are viewing by the editorial team.

from 1 April 2020, the nameplate shall include the following information:
Nameplate information | Value and precision | Unit | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Output power | X,X | W | In cases where more than one physical output or more than one output voltage at load condition 1 are measured, the sets of available Output voltage — Output current – Output power shall be given. |
Output voltage | X,X | V | In cases where more than one physical output or more than one output voltage at load condition 1 are measured, the sets of available Output voltage — Output current – Output power shall be given. |
Output current | X,X | A | In cases where more than one physical output or more than one output voltage at load condition 1 are measured, the sets of available Output voltage — Output current – Output power shall be given. |
from 1 April 2020, instruction manuals for end-users (where applicable), and free access websites of manufacturers, importers or authorised representatives shall include the following information, in the order as set out below:
Information published | Value and precision | Unit | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Manufacturer’s name or trade mark, commercial registration number and address | - | - | - |
Model identifier | - | - | - |
Input voltage | X | V | Specified by the manufacturer. Shall be a value or a range. |
Input AC frequency | X | Hz | Specified by the manufacturer. Shall be a value or a range. |
Output voltage | X,X | V | Nameplate output voltage. Shall indicate whether is AC or DC. In cases where more than one physical output or more than one output voltage at load condition 1 are measured, the sets of available Output voltage — Output current – Output power shall be published. |
Output current | X,X | A | Nameplate output current. In cases where more than one physical output or more than one output voltage at load condition 1 are measured, the sets of available Output voltage — Output current – Output power shall be published. |
Output power | X,X | W | Nameplate output power. In cases where more than one physical output or more than one output voltage at load condition 1 are measured, the sets of available Output voltage — Output current – Output power shall be published. |
Average active efficiency | X,X | % | Declared by the manufacturer based on the value calculated as arithmetical mean of efficiency at load conditions 1-4. In cases where multiple average active efficiencies are declared for multiple output voltages available at load condition 1, the value published shall be the average active efficiency declared for the lowest output voltage. |
Efficiency at low load (10 %) | X,X | % | Declared by the manufacturer based on the value calculated at load condition 5. External power supplies with a nameplate output power of 10 W or less shall be exempted from this requirement. In cases where multiple average active efficiencies are declared for multiple output voltages available at load condition 1, the value published shall be the value declared for the lowest output voltage. |
No-load power consumption | X,XX | W | Declared by the manufacturer based on the value measured for load condition 6. |
The relevant load conditions are as follows:
Percentage of nameplate output current | |
Load condition 1 | 100 % ± 2 % |
Load condition 2 | 75 % ± 2 % |
Load condition 3 | 50 % ± 2 % |
Load condition 4 | 25 % ± 2 % |
Load condition 5 | 10 % ± 1 % |
Load condition 6 | 0 % (no-load condition) |

This timeline shows the different versions taken from EUR-Lex before exit day and during the implementation period as well as any subsequent versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation.
The dates for the EU versions are taken from the document dates on EUR-Lex and may not always coincide with when the changes came into force for the document.
For any versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation the date will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force.
