[Equest-users] Lighting Control - Occupancy Sensor

[Nick Caton]

A small correction - the reduction (0-15%) is modifying the installed
LPD (W/SF), not the schedules.  The reduction amount does vary based on
the table Carol referenced in 90.1 Appendix G.  

 

This is easiest to do in the wizards: there's an overall multiplier,
defaulted to 1.00, on the bottom of lighting load screen.  In detailed
it would require you to modify the space LPD values in the spreadsheet
view, under the Internal Loads tab.

 

Agreeing with Carol's premise though - the way your question is worded
suggests you weren't clear on the contents Appendix G.  For your own
sake, definitely avoid relying on others to tell you what's within 90.1
or you might find yourself in hot water down the road ;).

For the spaces that don't require occupancy sensors you can show savings
by modifying the lighting schedule. I think a 15% reduction is allowed,
but verify that by looking in Appendix G where it tells you what you can
do and when. In fact it would be good for you to make a practice of
researching the answers to these types of questions yourself and save
the more complicated questions for the listserv. It is important to
respect everyone's time and do diligence by trying to find the answers
yourself. I know it's a lot to process at first but you will benefit
from the study.

Regards,
Carol

Does anyone know if there is a spot for Occupancy Sensor lighting
controls ? In both of DD Wizard mode and Detailed Data Edit mode, I
didn't see any.
