NC-2009 EAp2: Minimum Energy Performance
Greetings,
We are modeling a KFC fast food restaurant.
As everybody is aware there are illuminated advertisement in the outdoor walls and some ad signs on the roof.
Looking at table 9.4.2-2 we didn’t allocated an issue covering such type of lighting. The lighting Zone is 2.
Could you please advice how to proceed in these cases
Thanks.

Sign lighting is exempted from the requirements of the standard. This makes it a process load that you model identically in both models.
