4.2.1.1 Measured capacity
The measured heating or cooling capacity of air-to-air or water (brine)-to-air GEHP shall be determined
by measurements in a calorimeter room (see Annex A) or by the air enthalpy method (see Annex B).
The measured heating or cooling capacity of air-to-water (brine) or water (brine)-to-water (brine)
GEHP shall be determined in accordance with the water enthalpy method (see Annex D).
The measured heat recovery capacity of all GEHP shall be determined in accordance with the water
enthalpy method (see Annex D).

4.2.1.2 Effective capacity
4.2.1.2.1 Effective heating capacity
The effective heating capacity is the measured heating capacity corrected for the heat from the device
(pump(s) or fan(s)) responsible for circulating the heat transfer medium through the indoor heat
exchanger:
a) if the fan(s) or pump(s) is (are) an integral pa
