This Standard specifies the minimum energy performance standard (MEPS) requirements for computers as defined in AS/NZS 5813.1.
This Standard also specifies the following:
(a) Classification of computers into categories associated with different MEPS requirements.
(b) Classification of discrete graphics processing units.
(c) Typical energy consumption (TEC) calculation methods for desktop, integrated and notebook computers.
(d) Definition of base computer configurations and additional TEC allowances for nonbase configurations.
(e) Maximum power allowances by operational mode for small-scale servers.
(f) Minimum power supply efficiency levels.
