Energy Savings and Codes
ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1
Standard
Among the requirements in this
standard is that a building of
5,000 sq. ft. or more, except for
lighting operated 24 hours per day,
must incorporate automatic control
devices to turn off all lighting.
California Energy Commission (CEC) Title 24 Program
California’s Title 24 Program sets
up some of the most stringent
standards and regulations in
the country to reduce energy
consumption in both commercial
and residential structures.
IECC 2003 Lighting Control Provision
The International Energy Conservations Code (IECC) which
has been adopted by some states, affects new construction,
additions and alterations for all commercial buildings,
including residential structures with four or more stories
above grade. It requires an automatic shutoff of all lighting for
buildings larger than 5,000 sq. ft. with occupancy sensors as
one way to achieve this goal.
Some of the key provisions are:
Multi-level lighting control
Any enclosed space 100 sq. ft. or larger which has a
connected lighting load that exceeds 0.8 watts per sq. ft.
and has more than one light source (luminaire) shall be
controlled so that the load for lights may be reduced by a
minimum of 50%.
Area controls
Each area enclosed by ceiling height partitions must have an
independent switching or control device- occupancy sensor or
manual switch.
Automatic shut-off controls
For every floor, all indoor lighting must have a separate
automatic control, capable of automatically shutting off the
lighting.
Residential buildings
In 2005, Title 24 simplified and expanded the standard to
include use of high efficacy luminaires, manual-on occupancy
sensors, fluorescent lights or dimmers in most rooms of the
home such as bedrooms, bathroom, garage, living room,
hallway, and utility room.
Hubbell offers many models of occupancy, vacancy and
dimmers (all CEC Title 24 compliant) that will enable builders,
contractors and homeowners to meet these new requirements.
