10 CFR Part 430
Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products
CFR Correction
This rule is being published by the Office of the Federal Register
to correct an editorial or technical error that appeared in the most
recent annual revision of the Code of Federal Regulations.
In Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 200 to 499,
revised as of January 1, 2024, make the following corrections:
0
1. Amend Sec. 430.3 by revising paragraph (q)(6) to read as follows:
Sec. 430.3 Materials incorporated by reference.
* * * * *
(q) * * *
(6) IEC 62301 (``IEC 62301''), Household electrical appliances--
Measurement of standby power, (Edition 2.0, 2011-01); IBR approved for
appendices C1, C2, D1, D2, F, G, I, I1, J, J2, N, O, P, Q, U, X1, Y,
Y1, Z, BB, CC, CC1, EE, and FF to subpart B.
* * * * *
0
2. Amend Appendix X1 to Subpart B of Part 430 by:
0
a. Reinstating section 4.1.1.;
0
b. Removing the second instance of section 4.2.; and
0
c. Removing sections 4.3.1 and 4.3.2.
The reinstated text reads as follows:
Appendix X1 to Subpart B of Part 430--Uniform Test Method for Measuring
the Energy Consumption of Dehumidifiers
* * * * *
4.1 * * *
4.1.1 Portable dehumidifiers and whole-home dehumidifiers other
than refrigerant-desiccant dehumidifiers. Measure the energy
consumption in dehumidification mode, EDM, in kilowatt-hours (kWh),
the average percent relative humidity, Ht, either as measured using
a relative humidity sensor or using Tables 2 and 3 when using an
aspirating psychrometer, and the product capacity, Ct, in pints per
day (pints/day), in accordance with the test requirements specified
in section 7, ``Test Tolerances,'' section 8, ``Capacity Test,'' and
section 9, ``Energy Consumption,'' of AHAM DH-1-2022, with two
exceptions. First, the rating test period must be 2 hours. Second,
maintain the standard test conditions as shown in Table 1.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When using relative humidity and dry-bulb temperature sensors,
for dehumidifiers with multiple process air intake grilles, average
the measured relative humidities and average the measured dry-bulb
temperatures to determine the overall intake air conditions.
