Item
10A A product complying with the MEPS requirement
set out in AS/NZS 3823.2: 2005, achieving a minimum coefficient of performance
of 3·5 when tested in accordance with AS/NZS 3823.1.1:1998 and a minimum
rated output heating capacity of 2 kW as determined in accordance with
AS/NZS 3823.1.1:1998 at the H1 temperature condition and listed in
the ESC register.
PART B—CALCULATION OF CARBON DIOXIDE EQUIVALENTS OF GREENHOUSE GASES
The method and variables to be used to calculate in tonnes the carbon dioxide equivalent of greenhouse gases to be reduced by the installation of a product referred to in an item in Part A is determined by multiplying the abatement factor for that item by the regional factor applying to the place where the product is installed.
The following are the abatement factors and regional factors for each item in Part A:
Item
10A Abatement factor:
(a) If the product provides a rated
output heating capacity of not less than 2 and not more than
3 kW as
determined in accordance with

condition and has a coefficient of performance of—
(i) not less
than 3·5 and not more
than 3·99: 5·21;
(ii) not less
than 4 and not more than 4·49: 6·13;
