What is the supplementary energy consumption for dishwashers?
The energy rating label shows the total energy consumed by the dishwasher when measured to AS/NZS2007.1 for an assumed usage of 7 days per week. Virtually all dishwashers on the market now have a single plumbing connection and this can usually be connected to either a cold water supply (called the primary connection mode) or to a hot water supply (called the supplementary water connection mode). Almost no dishwashers are now available with dual water connections (both hot and cold inlets).
