For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, ZB and ZC, which are integral parts of this document. EN 12977 is currently composed with the following parts: — Thermal solar systems and components — Custom built systems — Part 1: General requirements for solar water heaters and combisystems; — Thermal solar systems and components — Custom built systems — Part 2: Test methods for solar water heaters and combisystems; — Thermal solar systems and components — Custom built systems — Part 3: Performance test methods for solar water heater stores; — Thermal solar systems and components — Custom built systems — Part 4: Performance test methods for solar combistores; — Thermal solar systems and components — Custom built systems — Part 5: Performance test methods for control equipment.

EN 12977-1:2018 (E) 5 Introduction a) Drinking water quality In respect of potential adverse effects on the quality of drinking water intended for human consumption caused by the product covered by this document, it should be noted that 1) this document provides no information as to whether the product may be used without restriction in any of the Member States of the EU or EFTA, 2) while awaiting the adoption of verifiable European criteria, existing national regulations concerning the use and/or the characteristics of this product remain in force. b) Factory made and custom built solar heating systems EN 12976-1, EN 12976-2, FprEN 12977-1, EN 12977-2, EN 12977-3, EN 12977-4 and EN 12977-5 distinguish two categories of solar heating systems: 1) factory made solar heating systems; and 2) custom built solar heating systems. The classification of a system as factory made or custom built is a choice of the final supplier, in accordance with the following definitions. 3) Factory made solar heating systems are batch products with one trade name, sold as complete and ready to install kits, with fixed configurations. Systems of this category are considered as a single product and assessed as a whole. If a factory made solar heating system is modified by changing its configuration or by changing one or more of its components, the modified system is considered as a new system. Requirements and test methods for factory made solar heating systems are given in EN 12976-1 and EN 12976-2. 4) Custom built solar heating systems are either uniquely built or assembled by choosing from an assortment of components. Systems of this category are regarded as a set of components. The components are separately tested and test results are integrated to an assessment of the whole system. Requirements for custom built solar heating systems are given in EN 12977-1, test methods are specified in EN 12977-1, EN 12977-2, EN 12977-3, EN 12977-4 and EN 12977-5. Custom built solar heating systems are subdivided into two categories: i) large custom built systems are uniquely designed for a specific situation. In general, they are designed by HVAC engineers, manufacturers or other experts; ii) small custom built systems offered by a company are described in a so-called assortment file, in which all components and possible system configurations, marketed by the company, are specified. Each possible combination of a system configuration with components from the assortment is considered as one custom built system. Table 1 shows the division for different system types.

NOTE 2 Both factory made and custom built systems for domestic hot water preparation are performance tested under the same set of basic reference conditions as specified in EN 12976-2:2017, Annex B and in EN 12977-2:2018, Annex A. In practice, the installation conditions may differ from these reference conditions. NOTE 3 Solar heating systems for both heating and cooling can so far not be performance tested; if the cooling option is not considered, then the solar heating system can be performance tested as a space heating system.
