ÂI am not quite sure what you're trying to do, but E+ doesn't concern itself with lighting fixtures, just watts and usage.For example, if you have a 4 tube 40 watts / tube fluorescent light fixture, you must use about 4 * 40 * 1.25 watts per fixture so as to include ballast energy. Other fixtures may not have a ballast, etc. E+ doesn't know or care.On Tue, Oct 28, 2014 at 3:23 PM, 'jeannieboef@xxxxxxxxx' jeannieboef@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support] <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:ÂNot to my knowledge.
