IS Standard : IS 1476 Part 1, Schedule - 5
BEE (Bureau of Energy Efficiency) registration is mandatory for Direct Cool Refrigerators sold in India.
As per the BEE's guidelines, all direct cool refrigerators up to a storage capacity of 800 liters fall under the scope of mandatory BEE registration. Manufacturers must obtain BEE registration before selling their direct cool refrigerators in India.
The purpose of BEE registration is to ensure that the products meet the minimum energy efficiency standards set by the government, and thereby help consumers save energy and reduce their electricity bills. It also promotes the use of energy-efficient appliances, which is beneficial for the environment.
The BEE provides star ratings for direct cool refrigerators based on their energy efficiency. The higher the star rating, the more energy-efficient the refrigerator is. It is advisable to check with the manufacturer or supplier of the direct cool refrigerator to ensure that the product has the necessary BEE registration and star rating before making a purchase. The BEE registration label should be displayed on the product or its packaging to confirm that it meets the energy efficiency standards set by the government.
