Title: Test Procedure Waiver Requirements for Manufacturers of Consumer Products and Certain Industrial Equipment, and Additional Prohibited Acts
Abstract: Since DOE codified test procedures for consumer products and certain industrial products, some products have been introduced that the test procedures do not clearly address. Currently, manufacturers can petition DOE for a waiver when the manufacturer believes the test procedure does not evaluate the product in a manner that reflects the product's true energy consumption. This rule will establish a methodology for ensuring compliance with applicable test procedures where there is no waiver in effect.
