I'm struggling with this credit as I don't see the link between the credit requirements and the submittals. As we have to incorporate 4 of 8 features this is pretty critical. We're installing Philips PowerBalance LED fixtures in the ceiling which I believe covers us for all of the hardware features and also the ceiling/workspace luminance ratio (as there is no indirect lighting.) We could also design for the wall/ceiling/floor brightness percentages. Can anyone help with the documentation I would need to provide to document these?

Hi Michael, Good question. There is definitely a disconnect between the current credit requirements and the submittals listed here. We will update the submittals as soon as possible to fix this issue. Also, as I mentioned to Melissa, feel free to email me if you are interested in using the draft resources we are working on for the LEED v4 credit.

Larissa - I would really like to see the draft resources. We're using the Powerbalance fixtures on a string of projects and I'd like to get as much experience with this credit as possible.
