NC-2009 EAp2: Minimum Energy Performance
Hi! There has been an addenda incorporated in the reference guide to SSc8. According to this Individual Lighting Power Allowances for Building Exteriors is now zone dependent. However, the addenda does not indicate that this should be used for EAp2 as well. Do you think the addenda should be used for EAp2 if SSc8 is not attempted?

Follow the 90.1 methodology for EAp2. Do not make any adjustment related to SSc8. The Proposed values should match between SSc8 and EAp2. The baseline can vary slightly between the two.
