Does it matter where to install occupancy sensors

To earn this credit for Strategy 3, does it matter where we locate the sensors so long as we meet the minimum 75% connected light loads, right? The obvious choices would be in non-regularly occupied spaces such as corridors, restrooms, stairwells etc rather than the space being occupied per se. How about in meeting rooms (multi-occupancy rooms), does that count too and double up to also secure the IEQc6.1?

Steve, it is up to you to choose the best spaces to put the occupancy sensors. It's true that some spaces are better suited for them, and some are less appropriate.
