EN 153:2006 (E) 4 Foreword This European Standard (EN 153:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 44 “Household refrigerating appliances and commercial refrigeration equipment”, the secretariat of which is held by UNI. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2006. This European Standard supersedes EN 153:1995. The significant changes compared to the document to be revised are the following:  rated voltage to test the refrigerating appliances is changed from 220 V to 230 V;  correction formula on the energy consumption measured value within the specified range of test temperature is changed from 24,5 °C to 25,5 °C;  addition of a normative annex on built-in refrigerating appliances;  addition of reference to Directives 94/2/EC and 92/75/EEC;  editorial modifications to be consistent with EN ISO 15502. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.



EN 153:2006 (E) 5 Introduction Energy saving is the most important parameter in the European plans for the reduction of the greenhouse effect. It is necessary to assess the energy saving by standardised methods of measurement of the energy consumption and of its associated characteristics. In this context, reference to this European Standard is mentioned in the Commission’s Directive 94/2/EC of
21 January 1994 as amended by Commission Directive 2003/66/EC of 3 July 2003[1] implementing Council Directive 92/75/EEC[2] with regard to energy labelling of household electric refrigerators, freezers and their combinations. This European Standard specifies the test method to be applied in accordance with these Directives. It also defines permitted tolerances to values declared by the manufacturer and control procedures for checking these declared values. For household refrigerators, household frozen food storage cabinets and their combinations these methods are specified in EN ISO 15502. As EN ISO 15502 has a wider field of application, the revision of EN 153:1995 has become necessary to conform its requirements to the European Legislation on rational use of energy.
