3、specifies an energy efficiency assessment methodology for data centres and telecom centres, test equipment accuracy requirements, assessment period, assessment conditions and calculation methods. Concerning the data centres and telecom centres, the Recommendation considers assessment methods for the
4、 efficiency of the whole data centre/telecom centre and of a part of the data centre/telecom centre. As the main energy-consuming infrastructure in data centres and telecom centres are the power feeding system (power supply system) and the cooling system, this Recommendation covers energy efficiency
5、 measurement methodologies for both types of systems. The Recommendation takes into account methodologies and best practices currently in use or under development in networks, and data centres and telecom centres. This Recommendation is aimed at reducing the negative impact of data centres and telec
6、om centres through by providing methodologies for energy efficiency assessment. It is commonly recognized that data centres and telecom centres will have an ever-increasing impact on the environment in the future. The application of the assessment methods defined in this Recommendation can help owne
7、rs and managers to build future data centres and telecom centres, or improve existing ones, that will operate in an environmentally responsible manner.

9、OREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for study
10、ing technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study group
11、s which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS
12、O and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provision
13、s (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such
14、words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position c
15、oncerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected b
16、y patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

39、omply with the following requirements: Item Accuracy Temperature 0.5C +0.5C Humidity 5.0% +5.0% Voltage 1.0% +1.0% Current 1.0% +1.0% Power 3.0% +3.0% Energy Class 1 NOTE Class 1 is for energy measurement accuracy and should refer to IEC 62053-21 class 1. 7.2 Assessment period and frequency 1) Asses
40、sment period The assessment period should be of twelve months, considering that the cooling system energy efficiency varies according to the outside temperature. The power feeding system energy efficiency also differs depending on the load rate. 4 Rec. ITU-T L.1302 (11/2015) If the assessment period
41、 is not of twelve months, a justification of the assessment period used is required and should be documented in the final report. 2) Assessment frequency Continuous measurement is needed, and energy consumption is required to be measured at least every 30 minutes. Given the conditions, if assessment
42、 is done in a discontinuous way, it should be done in accordance with the following requirements: In the case of discontinuous measurement, energy consumption should be measured at least every 30 minutes, and assessment should be done at least once every hour. In addition, assessment should be done
43、at least twice per day at least three days in one month. If discontinuous measurement is being applied, justification of assessment frequency needs to be provided. 7.3 Assessment conditions The assessment should cover whole year running conditions. If using discontinuous methods, it should be in acc
44、ordance with following requirements: 1) Load conditions The assessment should cover busy hours and idle hours, so that it is done on different load conditions. 2) Environmental conditions The assessment should cover all seasons, so that it is done under different environmental conditions. 7.4 Measur
45、ement methods Measurements of energy consumption and energy efficiency should be carried out once the whole data centre/telecom centre has reached a stable operation state. The normal operation of the data centre or telecom centre should not be affected by the energy efficiency assessment activities
46、. The power meter should be installed after data centre/telecom centre has been put in operation. Measuring voltage clamps and current probes should be used to avoid affecting the operation. The power meter used should comply with clause 7.1. The assessment period and frequency should be in accordan
47、ce with clause 7.2. The assessment conditions should be in accordance with clause 7.3. As energy consumption and energy efficiency in the data centre/telecom centre are affected by environmental and load conditions, including room and outside temperature, room and outside humidity and load rate, the
48、se conditions and parameters need to be documented in the energy efficiency report. The measurement points and calculation of energy efficiency should be accordance with clause 7.5 of this Recommendation. 7.5 Energy efficiency measurement points and calculation methods The power input of data centre
49、s and telecom centres can be high voltage (HV), medium voltage (MV) or low voltage (LV). Different types of data centre and telecom centre for the measurement of the whole energy efficiency are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3. 1) High voltage/medium voltage input data centre and telecom centre structure Rec.
