The capacity shall be the cooling capacity in Btu's per hour, as determined according to appendix F to 10 CFR part 430, subpart B, but rounded to the nearest value ending in hundreds that will satisfy the relationship that the value of EER used in representations equals the rounded value of capacity divided by the value of input power in watts. If a value ending in hundreds will not satisfy this relationship, the capacity may be rounded to the nearest value ending in 50 that will. (g) Clothes washers. The capacity shall be the tub capacity, rounded to the nearest gallon, as determined according to appendix J to 10 CFR part 430, subpart B, in the terms ``standard'' or ``compact'' as defined in appendix J.
