From SAINT-GOBAIN ISOVER have released a plugin that makes it easy to analysis of the verification of the requirements of the technical building code , to users of the Ce3X application. The complement of ISOVER , is fully integrated into Ce3X and allows analyze the basic CTE requirements corresponding to the basic energy saving document.
We must remember that, this new plugin before the report of the energy certificate allows analyze the basic requirements corresponding to the basic energy saving document, of the CTE as established in Order FOM/1635/2013, of 10 September, by which the Basic Document is updated DB-HE «Energy Saving» , from the Technical Code of the Building, approved by Royal Decree 314/2006, of March 17 and that are summarized in the following scheme:

Since we have a general idea of the scope and requirements in the Consumption limitation DB-HE0 and in the Demand limitation DB-HE1 . Now we would have to answer…. How to fulfill the CTE DB HE 0 and DB HE1 step by step with a example?
As a preliminary, we leave the summary video to be able to have a general idea.
To further clarify concepts and the objective of the plugin for Ce3X highly recommended to see the following explanatory video that was made in Foro Hábitat.
We must remember that since January 14, 2016 only You can use the latest versions of software energy certification, HERE the explanation and access for Download the latest versions of software certification.
Once the Ce3X plugin has been added, we are going to see an example of justification of the demands of the CTE . To carry out the analysis of the requirements, CE3X will be loaded with the file of the building to be analyzed.

In the window you can see the name of the set, the description, energy rating and the result of the verification that can be “Complies” or “Not complies” .
Then, you can click on the icons located next to the check result:
![]() | In this icon you will find information details of the parts of the CTE that are not comply .

By selecting the more information icon, the system returns a complete analysis of each of the demands:
