Energy Efficiency Test (Efficiency Management Equipment)

Overview of the efficiency management equipment

All home appliances, office equipment, lighting equipment, heat-using equipment, or automobiles, etc., consume energy to a certain degree. However, the amount each of these machines used is never the same. There are many ways to increase energy efficiency. However, the best way to do it is to encourage people to use energy-saving products whenever they can to save the amount of energy we spend from the beginning.

Description of the program

The Energy Efficiency Ratings Labeling Program is a program that makes it mandatory to attach Energy Efficiency rating labels indicating the energy efficiency levels for the products which consume more energy and are used more widely, while the program also prohibits the production and sales of the products which fail to meet the minimum efficiency requirements. This program is applicable to every single manufacturer. The Energy Efficiency Ratings Labeling requirements are applied to 15 items among home appliances, lighting equipment, and automobiles, while the minimum efficiency requirements are applicable to 14 items.

How to identify products that are subject to the energy savings requirements

Fields Items How to identify energy-saving products

  • Incandescent lamps
  • Fluorescent lamps
  • Stabilizers for fluorescent lamps
  • Lamps with built-in stabilizers
  • 3-phase induction motors

    Scope of application

    General purpose low-voltage 3-phase squirrel cage inducting motor with continuous ratings, voltage up to 600V, where the temperature of the coolant is no more than 40℃ under normal operating conditions
    Classification
    • Protection type or total enclosure type
    Rated output
    • From 0.75kW up to 375kW
    Number of poles
    • 2 poles, 4 poles, 6 poles, and 8 poles (*Only as part as the products with the corresponding number of poles where the efficiency standard is set.)
    Purpose and frame
    • Universal frame
    Speed
    • fixed-speed operation
    Type
    • Foot mount or flange
    Torque
    • Design A or B type
    Applicability of the minimum consumption efficiency
    1) Type I: Applicable
    • General purpose motors with partial modification without impacting the performance or efficiency of the universal motor where the basic requirements are met.
    • Universal motors: Motors with standard mechanical structures and operating characteristics under normal working conditions (ex: adding a temperature sensor, extending the shaft, adding a disc brake, or changing the shape of the exterior of the housing)

    2) Type II: Applicable

    • General purpose motors with partial modification without impacting the performance or efficiency of the universal motor where the basic requirements are met.
    • Universal motors: Motors with standard mechanical structures and operating characteristics under normal working conditions (ex: adding a temperature sensor, extending the shaft, adding a disc brake, or changing the shape of the exterior of the housing)
    Applicability of the minimum consumption efficiency
    3) Type III: Not applicable
    • A certain-purpose motor where the basic requirements are met but it is not possible to use for general purposes
      (ex: TENV motors)

    4) Type IV: Not applicable

    • Special purpose motors that meet the basic requirements
    • Special purpose motors: Motors other than general purpose motors or certain-purpose motors, designed for special applications with special operating characteristics and mechanical structures
      (ex: motors with thrust bearings, etc.)

    5) Type V: Not applicable

    • The motors that do not meet the basic requirements
      (ex: multi-speed motors)

    Test standard

    The Operating Rules for the Equipment and Items Subject to Efficiency Management (Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy No. 2020-55)
    With regard to the detailed technical standard and measurement methods, please refer to “Schedule 1: The method to measure the consumption efficiency for the equipment and supplies subject to efficiency management, etc.” and “Schedule 3: The standard for endowing the lowest consumption efficiency grade.”

    The certification fee for the efficiency management equipment (3-phase induction motor)

    • As per the test rules of our institution (base fee: 800,000 won (VAT not included))
    • Multiple business enlistment test fee: 100,000 won per model (VAT not included)
