30 Calculating Cooling Season Total Energy Consumption and Heating Season Total Energy Consumption
Products other than unitary single duct air conditioners
(1) For this Determination, for a product other than a unitary single duct air conditioner, the Cooling Season Total Energy Consumption is the amount TECCS as calculated in accordance with the following formula:

CCSE is the Cooling Seasonal Energy Consumption (CSEC), as calculated in accordance with clause 6 of AS/NZS 3823.4.1:2014 and based on rated inputs.
Note: The Cooling Seasonal Energy Consumption or CSEC is the total annual amount of energy consumed by the equipment when it is operated for cooling in active mode.
CIAE is the Annual Inactive Energy Consumption, as calculated in accordance with Annex B of AS/NZS 3823.4.1:2014 and based on rated inputs.
Note 1: The annual inactive energy consumption CIAE is equal to the product of the weighted average inactive power consumption Pia (see subsection 20(2)) and the number of hours of inactive mode, Hia, as given by AS/NZS 3823.4.1:2014.
Note 2: The factor 0.6 represents 60 per cent of the CIAE, which is attributed to the cooling cycle.
(2) For this Determination, for a product other than a unitary single duct air conditioner, the Heating Season Total Energy Consumption is the amount TECHS as calculated in accordance with the following formula:

CHSE is the Heating Seasonal Energy Consumption (HSEC), as calculated in accordance with clause 6 of AS/NZS 3823.4.2:2014 and based on rated inputs.
Note: The Heating Seasonal Energy Consumption or HSEC is the total annual amount of energy consumed by the equipment, including make-up heat, when it is operated for heating in active mode.
CIAE is the Annual Inactive Energy Consumption, as calculated in accordance with Annex B of AS/NZS 3823.4.2:2014 and based on rated inputs.
Note 1: The annual inactive energy consumption CIAE is equal to the product of the weighted average inactive power consumption Pia (see subsection 20(2)) and the number of hours of inactive mode, Hia, as given by AS/NZS 3823.4.2:2014.
Note 2: The factor 0.4 represents 40 per cent of the CIAE, which is attributed to the heating cycle.
Temperature bins for energy rating label calculations
(3) For calculating the Cooling Season Total Energy Consumption and Heating Season Total Energy Consumption using subsections (1) and (2) for the purposes of section 6 of Schedule 3, calculations must be based on the residential temperature bins of clause 6.3 of AS/NZS 3823.4.1:2014 and AS/NZS 3823.4.2:2014.
