There are strict requirements for labelling of the motor rating plate. From June 2011 the following information must be shown on the rating plate and the motor documentation: lowest efficiency at 100%, 75% and 50% rated load, the efficiency level (IE2 or IE3) and the year of manufacture.

As stated above, from 2015 IE2 motors equipped with a frequency inverter can be used instead of IE3 premium efficiency motors. This is an attractive alternative and the IE2 + inverter combination will generally yield greater savings compared to IE3 if variable speed is required.

There is no expectation that the inverter will be integrated into the motor, although that is possible, and it is expected that many customers will purchase motors and inverters from different sources. Documentation requirements are not yet defined, but it would seem likely that a degree of self-certification will apply.
