Hi,

We are working on an office project outside the US and recommending the client install desk lamps as task lighting to increase controllability of lighting and reduce ceiling lighting energy loads. It is mentioned that lighting is not generally included in the energy star calculations but we're wondering if desk lamps are considered plug loads and be should included in the energy star office appliance percentage?

Also does anyone know how to go about proving equivalency between an international energy efficiency system, such as the Hong Kong energy efficiency label, and Energy Star certification?

Thanks!
