of hinged and sliding doors or no doors; e. is designed either for pull-down temperature applications or holding temperature

applications; and f. is connected to a self-contained condensing unit; “ Commissioner ” means the Commissioner of Environmental Protection; “ Digital television converter box ” means a device that receives and decodes digital broadcast signals for display by

an analog television set; “ Energy efficiency ratio ” means the ratio of the cooling capacity in Btu per hour to the power input values

in watts obtained at standard rating conditions expressed in Btu per watt-hours; “ Holding temperature applications ” means commercial refrigerator, freezer, and refrigerator-freezer equipment that

is not designed for “pull-down” temperature applications; “ Illuminated exit sign ” means an internally illuminated sign that is designed to be permanently fixed in

place and used to identify an exit, a light source illuminates the sign or letters

from within, and the background of the sign is not transparent; “ Low-voltage dry-type distribution transformer ” means a transformer with an input voltage of 600 volts or less, is between 14kVa

and 2,501kVa in size, is air-cooled, and does not use oil as a coolant, and does not

include those types of transformers specifically excluded from the low voltage dry-type

distribution transformer definition published in the California Code of Regulations,

Title 20: Division 2, Chapter 4, Article 4: Appliance Efficiency Regulations, as

amended in November 2002; “ Packaged air-conditioning equipment ” means air-conditioning equipment that is built as a package and shipped as a whole

to end-user sites; “ Pull-down temperature applications ” means commercial refrigerator, freezer, and refrigerator-freezer equipment specifically

designed to rapidly reduce all product content temperatures from various ambient temperatures

at a minimum reduction rate of 4.3 degrees Fahrenheit per hour over a 12-hour period

to an overall integrated product temperature equal to 38 degrees Fahrenheit when fully

loaded with beverage containers; “ Self-contained condensing unit ” means a factory-made assembly of refrigerating components designed to compress and

liquefy a specific refrigerant that is an integral part of the refrigerated equipment

and consists of one or more refrigerant compressors, refrigerant condensers, condenser

arrow modules in the same colors to indicate turning movements; “ Transformer ” means a device consisting essentially of two or more coils of insulated wire that

transfers alternating current by electromagnetic induction from one coil to another

in order to change the original voltage or current value; and “ Unit heater ” means a self-contained fan-type heater that uses natural gas, propane, or fuel oil

and is designed to be installed within a heated space. Unit heaters include an apparatus or appliance to supply heat, and a fan for circulating

air over a heat exchange surface, all enclosed in a common casing. Unit heaters do not include “warm air furnaces” as specifically defined under the

federal Energy Policy Act of 1992, Pub.L. 102-486. 1 1
