Inquiry
Our facility is a college science building with personal office spaces, lecture rooms, and laboratories. The question is in reference to the requirement to provide individual lighting controls for 90% (minimum) of the building occupants. For individual office spaces, does overhead, locally-controlled, multi-level lighting in each individual office meet the requirement to enable adjustment to suit the task needs and preferences?
Ruling
The overhead, locally-controlled, multi-level lighting in each individual office meets the definition of individual lighting control as long as the lighting designer declares that this design enables adjustment to suit task needs and preferences. Applicable Internationally.
