ASHRAE declarations

Use the ASHRAE declarations table and figures to determine the measurement reporting requirements defined in the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments.

These guidelines are available at ASHRAE Technical Committee.
