Hi all,
I'm currently working on a research center which is located in South Korea.
EQ credit 6. Interior Lighting
Option 1. Lighting Control
All shared multi-occupant spaces, at least three lighting levels or scenes (on/off/midlevel)
Question,
If there is a multi-occupant space like conference room, does it need to have ONE lighting control that has three levels or scenes for EACH ONE space?
Some spaces can have SEVERAL switches for ONE space.
So I'd like to make sure whether ALL of lighting controls in ONE multioccupant space have three levels or not.
Thanks.

Hi Jae Yong,
Yes, there needs to be at least three levels/scenes for each multi-occupant space. This could be accomplished with multi-circuit controls in each room (several switches for one space) or dimmable controls for each room (one switch that provides multiple options for lighting levels). The requirement for three levels/scenes per multi-occupant space must be met for every multi-occupant space in the project in order to earn Option 1. For conference rooms, the lighting for presentation/projection walls must also be on its own control circuit to meet the requirements.
