FAQs about EQc6 :

For Option 1, we would like occupants to be able to control lighting in their area from smartphones, tablets, or computers; we plan to eliminate physical switches altogether. Would this meet the intent of Option 1?

Can I use recessed fixtures and still meet Strategy D?

What lighting controls are required for a conference room with a presentation screen?

Is Option 1 achievable for open office spaces?

Where do I find the CRI of a lamp?

Do task lights need to meet all the lighting quality requirements?

How limiting are the reflectance values in the finish requirements?

Daylight is an important strategy in my project. How do I meet this credit as well as the daylighting credit?

NC-v4 EQc6:Interior lighting

Option 2-Strategy A: Spotlights on a light rail

We have an office project pursuing option 2. Our design is mainly downlighting and spotlights on a lighting rail system. Our downlighting lamps meet the criteria for strategy A, but we can't find any spotlight lamps that can meet the criteria for lamps on a lighting rail. Can they be considered an exception (adjustable fixture) as they can be removed, they can all be pointed upwards or moved depending on layout and user preference so as not to cause glare?

It is my understanding that the spotlights on a lighting rail system would be considered "adjustable fixtures" which are allowed as an exclusion.
