What is SASO 2203 2015 ?

SASO 2203/2015 aims to achieve energy efficiency requirements for electrical appliances and equipment in Saudi Arabia. The regulation applies to a wide range of products, including refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, televisions, and lighting devices.

The Energy Efficiency CriteriaThe primary goal of SASO 2203/2015 is to promote energy conservation and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by limiting the energy consumption of electrical appliances and equipment. The regulation applies to products that are sold in Saudi Arabia and deemed to be energy-consuming.

SASO 2203/2015 sets energy efficiency criteria for the products, which are based on the type of appliance, its size, and its intended use. The criteria are divided into three categories: mandatory,, and optional.The Mandatory Criteria

The mandatory energy efficiency criteria are set by the SASO and are mandatory for products to be sold in Saudi Arabia. The criteria are based on the energy efficiency class of the product, which is determined by its energy consumption.

The recommended energy efficiency criteria are optional, but they are still highly recommended for products to be sold in Saudi Arabia. The criteria are based on the energy efficiency class of the product and recommend that the product should be more energy-efficient than the mandatory criteria.

The Optional Criteria

The optional energy efficiency criteria are also optional, but they are still highly recommended for products to be sold in Saudi Arabia. The criteria are based on the energy efficiency class of the product and recommend that the product should be more energy-efficient than the mandatory or recommended criteria.

SASO 2203/2015 also sets criteria for product safety and quality, as well as fair trade within Saudi Arabia. The regulation applies to all products that are sold in Saudi Arabia, including domestic and foreign products.

ConclusionSASO 2203/2015 is a technical regulation that aims to promote energy conservation and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by limiting the energy consumption of electrical appliances and equipment. The regulation applies to a wide range of products in Saudi Arabia, including refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, televisions, and lighting devices. By following the energy efficiency criteria set by SASO, manufacturers can ensure that their products are more energy-efficient and can contribute to sustainable development.
