I am confused, if you wanted to use this credit as an Innovation credit in a v4 ID+C project, does the entire base building need to comply or just your LEED commercial interiors project? The Innovation Catalog says,
"Please note that since LEED O+M is a whole building rating system, when attempting an Innovation in Design point for following a LEED O+M prerequisite or credit compliance path the strategy must be applied to the entire project building."
It doesn't seem feasible at all for a commercial interiors project, but wanted to confirm.
Thank you!

I've submitted it for a v4 CI project using only the lights in our space fitout and it was fine. I do agree the language could/should be clearer. Interested to see if anyone else has had pushback, though.

For v4, what do we really need to upload for this credit? Is it just the lamp purchasing calculator or do we need to attach other documents as well, such as cutsheets?

Edgar,
If you are using all LED lamps. You can just provide cut sheets/manufactuerer documentation and/or lighting fixture schedule to confirm all lamps are LED. If you are not using all LED lamps, you can provide Lamp Purchasing Calculator along with lighting purchasing plan that specifies an overall building average of 70 picograms of mercury per lumen-hour.
