2000 Thermal Regulation
The new 2000 Thermal Regulation promulgated in November 2000 consists of a decree on the thermal characteristics of construction and an order relating to the thermal characteristics of new buildings and new additions to existing buildings. The new regulation "RT 2000" incorporates a general objective for the energy performance of the buildings and not merely constraints on particular aspects such as thermal insulation, thermal bridges, infiltration, etc. Space heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and domestic hot water are concerned (as is lighting in commercial and administrative buildings). The optimal combination can be chosen by building designers from among all possible solutions…

SANS 1125
This standard specifies requirements for single-package and split-system non-ducted air conditioners that employ air-cooled and water-cooled condensers and for heat pumps that employ air-cooled condensers. It is limited to systems that utilize a single refrigeration circuit and have one evaporator and one condenser. It covers air conditioners that are intended for operation on an a.c. power supply, single-phase not exceeding 250 V to earth, and three-phase not exceeding 418 V to earth, with a frequency of 50 Hz, and that have a cooling capacity not exceeding 12 000 W.
