Definitions

Compressor control system(s)A system that improves operation efficiency of split type air
conditioners by preventing excessive cooling through theutilization of pre-programmed switching on/off schedules ofcompressors. The pre-programmed switching on/offschedules of compressors constantly monitors operation
status of the compressor equipped in the air conditioner
outdoor unit by measuring an electric current at theoptimum programmed timing.

Split type air conditioner(s)A type of air conditioner(s) allows one outdoor unit to beconnected with a wide variety of indoor units, including
wall mounted, consoles, cassette, and ducted units.

F.1. Establishment of reference emissions
Reference emissions are established based on the monitored electricity consumption ofcompressor of outdoor unit in project split type air conditioners, the project energy saving3

factor, and the CO2 emission factor of the electricity consumed by project split type airconditioners.
The project energy saving factor by installation of the compressor control system(s) isdetermined by the following procedures to ensure net emission reductions.
Step 1: Once after the installation of the compressor control system(s) in the project activity,
switch the compressor control system(s) on(activate) and off(inactivate) consecutively at the30-minute interval at pre-programmed switching on/off schedules before starting monitoring
period. Secondly take continuous measurements on electricity consumption of compressors in
the air conditioners for both on and off cases at an interval of at least 0.01 second by internalfunctions of compressor control system(s) for at least one operating day.
Step 2: Collect measured electricity consumption data by all installed compressor controlsystem(s) during period examined. All the data is aggregated to total electricity consumption
for both on and off cases, respectively per installed compressor control system(s).
Note:
In case the number of the installed compressor control system(s) exceeds 10 units, random
sampling may be conducted. The sample size can be determined in line with the latest version
of “Guideline Sampling and surveys for CDM project activities and programmes of activities”
and “Standard Sampling and surveys for CDM project activities and programmes of activities”
applicable at the time of conducting the sampling. Simple random sampling can be utilized if
areas where the compressor control systems are installed belong to the same region describedin explanatory note 1, and if the same pre-programmed on/off switching schedules are applied
to all compressor control systems installed.
Step 3: Compare electricity consumption data of all collected or sampled compressor control
systems(s) for on and off cases and calculate the percentage of electricity consumption saved
expressed as calculated energy saving factor of each data or sample. Calculate the energy
saving factor as follows.
