Power Adjustment Percentages for Automatic Lighting Controls

Hi, I am producing an energy model for a a refurbished building with a new lighting scheme. The installed LPD is 9 Watts /m2 using LED. As the new lighting design includes occupancy sensors and programmable timing control am I correct in saying that I can reduce the installed LPD in my model by 10% by applying ASHRAE 2007 90.1 Table G3.2. For example use 8.1 W/m2 in the model as opposed to 9w/m2. Any advise on this would be great.

Yes that is correct. Make sure you also include occupancy sensors in the baseline where required by Section 9.4.1.2.
