E3 - Equipment Energy Efficiency

Label Screen

After you have completed your product-specific application pages, you will come to the Label page.

Not all appliance types require you to provide an Energy Rating Label with your application for a registration. Please check the Energy Rating website and the relevant product standard for information about labelling and how to comply with the relevant legislation.

When it comes to providing an Energy Rating Label, you have three options:

1. You can create and upload your own Energy Rating Label;
2. The system can generate a label for you based on the information you provide in your application.
3. If you are registering a labelled Air Conditioner, the system will generate a Zoned Energy Rating Label (ZERL) for you based on the information you provide in your application. You cannot manually create and upload your own ZERL.

Please refer to the instructions below for more information.

Generate an Energy Rating Label (for all labelled products except Air Conditioners)

The Registration System can now generate an Energy Rating Label on the registrant’s behalf for all labelled products. Please refer to the instructions below on how to generate an Energy Rating Label.

Please note that Air Conditioners have a different label called the Zoned Energy Rating Label. Please scroll down to the next section for information on generating a Zoned Energy Rating Label.

To generate an Energy Rating Label:

1. Complete each page of the product application and provide all relevant product details. The system will not allow you to generate a label until all correct information is provided.
2. Go to the Label page. Select “Generate Label” on the right hand side of the page under the Auto Generated Label table, as shown in Figure 5 below.
   If you are re-generating a label, a prompt will appear asking you to confirm that you wish to replace the existing label. Select “OK”.

Generate a Zoned Energy Rating Label (for Air Conditioners)

If you are registering an air conditioner for MEPS and labelling, the Registration System will generate a Zoned Energy Rating Label (ZERL) for you based on the data you have entered throughout the application. See Figure 7 below.

The ZERL label cannot be edited and must be used as generated by the system.
