2002/40/EC - Commission Directive 2002/40/EC of 8 May 2002 implementing Council Directive 92/75/EEC with regard to energy labelling of household ovens
Commission Directive 2002/40/EC implements Council Directive 92/75/EEC concerning the energy labelling of household electric ovens powered by mains electricity. It establishes that labels must be affixed to oven doors, clearly displaying energy efficiency classes from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), energy consumption in kWh based on standardized testing, oven volume, and where applicable, noise emissions. The directive excludes ovens using multiple energy sources, portable ovens under 18 kg not designed for built-in installation, and steam functions other than hot steam. Labels and information sheets (fiches) must comply with harmonized European standards for measurement and presentation. When ovens are marketed through remote channels (e.g., catalogs, Internet), relevant energy label information must be provided. The Directive also repeals the earlier Directive 79/531/EEC and mandates Member States to adopt necessary laws by the end of 2002, with full application by January 1, 2003. This ensures harmonized energy labelling across the EU, facilitating consumer awareness and promoting energy-efficient electric ovens.
Purpose
Directive 2002/40/EC implements Council Directive 92/75/EEC specifically regarding the energy labelling of household electric ovens. Its main objective is to provide consumers with clear and harmonised information about the energy consumption and efficiency of electric ovens in the European Union. By doing so, the Directive aims to encourage the reduction of energy use in households and support energy saving objectives within the Community.

Frequently Asked Questions
An EU Directive is a legislative act of the European Union that sets out goals that all EU member states must achieve. However, it is up to each member state to devise their own laws on how to reach these goals through national transposition. Directives are used to harmonize laws across the EU, particularly for the functioning of the single market.
Directive 2002/40/EC covers "Commission Directive 2002/40/EC of 8 May 2002 implementing Council Directive 92/75/EEC with regard to energy labelling of household ovens". There are 14 standards associated with this directive.
Harmonized standards under 2002/40/EC are European standards (ENs) developed by CEN, CENELEC, or ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission. When these standards are cited in the Official Journal of the European Union, products manufactured in conformity with them benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of 2002/40/EC, facilitating CE marking and free movement within the European Economic Area.
