sound power level determined according to ISO 3744 or ISO 3743-1 EE.2.5 Information to be recorded The information to be recorded covers all of the technical requirements of this noise test code Any deviations from this noise test code or from the basic standards upon which it is based are to be recorded together with the technical justification for such deviations EE.2.6 Information to be reported The information to be included in the test report is at least that which the manufacturer requires for a noise emission declaration or the user requires to verify the declared values EE.2.7 Declaration and verification of noise emission values The declaration of the emission sound pressure level shall be made as a dual-number noise emission declaration according to ISO 4871, where it exceeds 70 dB(A) Where the emission sound pressure level does not exceed 70 dB(A), this fact may be stated in place of the emission value and uncertainty, e.g by declaring L pA ≤ 70 dB(A) It shall declare the noise emission value L pA and separately the respective uncertainty K pA The sound power level shall be given as a dual-number noise emission declaration according to ISO 4871, where the emission sound pressure level exceeds 80 dB(A) Licensed Copy: Mr Universiti Teknologi Malaysia User, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 11/06/2013 05:22, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) The British Standards
