The following table sets out the standards, where the standards can be purchased and the reason for incorporation.

Product Type Standard Place of Purchase and Reason for Incorporation into the Energy Efficiency (Energy Using Products) Regulations 2002
Computers Minimum energy performance standard:
AS/NZS 5813.2:2012: Information technology equipment—Energy performance of computers—Part 2: Minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) for computers
www.standards.co.nz

To incorporate Amendment 1 of AS/NZS 5813.2:2012 which corrects a number in Table 4.2 of that standard
Computer monitors Minimum energy performance standard:
AS/NZS 5815.2:2013: Information technology equipment—Energy performance of computer monitors—Part 2: Minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) and energy rating labels
www.standards.co.nz

To incorporate Amendment A of AS/NZS 5815.2:2013 which removes a clause from that standard related to electronic labelling that is superfluous
Single-phase ducted air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps

Single-phase non-ducted air conditioners and heat pumps

Three-phase air conditioners and heat pumps
Minimum energy performance standard:
AS/NZS 3823.2:2013: Performance of electrical appliances—Air conditioners and heat pumps—Part 2: Energy labelling and minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) requirements
www.standards.co.nz

To incorporate the most recent version of this standard for administrative simplicity (no changes to requirements)
Multiple split system air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps Minimum energy performance standard:
AS/NZS 3823.2:2013 Performance of electrical appliances—Air conditioners and heat pumps—Part 2: Energy labelling and minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) requirements

Testing standards options:
AS/NZS 3823.1.4:2012 Performance of electrical appliances—Airconditioners and heat pumps—Part 1.4: Multiple split-system airconditioners and air-to-air heat pumps—Testing and rating for performance

AS/NZS 3823.3:2002 Performance of electrical appliances—Airconditioners and heat pumps—Part 3: Calculation of performance for minimum energy performance standard (MEPS)

Note that these requirements will apply—
(a) in accordance with clause 3.4(c), or (d) of AS/NZS 3823.2:2013; and
(b) despite clause 1.1(ii) of AS/NZS 3823.3:2002; and

For variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems, either of the above standards, or any of the alternative standards set out below applied in accordance with clause 3.11 of AS/NZS 3823.2:2013
www.standards.co.nz

To introduce minimum energy performance requirements (that align with Australian requirements) for multiple split system air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps

To introduce testing standard options for multiple split system air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps

To introduce alternative test standards for Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) multiple split system air conditioners and air-to-air heat pumps
