CI-2009 IEQc6.1:Controllability of Systems—Lighting

Controllability of Systems- Lighting Documentation

How do I go about providing documentation to meet this credit. I am working on a fit out project for a new office. There are roughly 900 cubes with task lighting at each cube, offices with switches/ occupancy sensors and conference rooms with switches / occupancy sensors. Can I upload my electrical engineer's drawings showing all of these things?

We always submit the detail of the furniture showing the task lights in the cubes and lighting drawings with highlighted switches /dimmer switch. Our architectural drawings include the furniture to allow the reviewer to verify the count.

Hi Robert, I would show a furniture layout plan and I would upload an electrical plan. If the task lighting is incorporated into the cubicle than I'd upload the cutsheet for that cubicle showing the task light. If the task light is separate, than I'd upload the cut sheet of that separate task light. It sounds like you're in excellent shape for achievement of the credit. Remember that other "individual workstations" beyond cubicles might need to be included such as a receptionist's desk. Also, remember that occupancy sensors do not assist with compliance but simple light switches do. This credits all about the occupants having control over their space. Good luck, Lauren
