I am looking at the Annual Building Utility Performance Summary, in the END USES Table, there is an amount of electricity used for heating. It has nothing to do with hot water demand because for that there is a natural gas boiler.
Where can I modify the setting of the crankcase heater?

I have compared the node temperature of the cooling coil outlet with the supplementary heating coil outlet and there is no difference, meaning that the heating coils are not operating. Also there is no sensible heating load in any zone.
