1 Scope

This document is applicable to gas-fired mCHP appliances producing domestic hot water and electricity.

The electricity is generated in a process linked to the production of useful heat.

It applies to a mCHP appliances marketed as single unit or as a package fully specified by a

manufacturer that have:
— a gas heat input not exceeding 400 kW;
— an electrical output not exceeding 50 kW and
— a hot water storage capacity (if any) not exceeding 2000 l.

prEN 13203-1:2021 sets out in qualitative and quantitative terms the performance in delivery of

domestic hot water for a variety of uses. It also gives a system for presenting the information to the

user.

The present document sets out a method for assessing the energy performance of gas fired mCHP

appliances. It defines a number of daily tapping cycles for each domestic hot water use, kitchen, shower,

bath and a combination of these, together with corresponding test procedures, enabling the energy

performances of different gas-fired appliances to be compared and matched to the needs of the user.

When the mCHP generator does not supply domestic hot water in the summer period, the present

standard is not applicable. prEN 13203-2:2021 is used for performance assessment of these generators.

the product standard EN 50465:xxxx for the appliance space heating function or at the

maximum declared average temperature. The useful thermal efficiency at nominal heat

input will be determined including hydraulic circuit and storage tank if applicable. See

the Figures D.1 and D.2.”
The last 4th paragraphs are replaced by the following:

“The heat engine for a combination mCHP appliance in winter mode spends most of the demand time on

space heating, outside any night (or day) set-back periods (which require a lower room temperature

and hence heating load).

When a combination mCHP appliance switches from space heating to domestic hot water mode and

back to space heating the standby losses usually generated from the domestic hot water mode are not

lost but are instead used in the space heating mode.

That means combination heaters have lower domestic hot water heat losses in winter mode than in

summer mode.

These energy savings benefits of combination mCHP appliances have to be taken in account.”
