FAQs about EAp2 :

Are there any exceptions to the daylight control requirement of ASHRAE 90.1–2010?

Our proposed design has insulation R-values that are below those prescribed by ASHRAE 90.1-2010. Can we still meet the prerequisite?

Do the required savings for this prerequisite (and credit) need to come only from building energy, or also process loads?

Our project doesn't have enough energy savings to earn the prerequisite. Can we get there by incorporating onsite renewables?

Does the base building information need to be included in the minimum energy performance calculator, or is it sufficient to just include the tenant space?

CI-v4 EAp2:Minimum energy performance

90.1 Section 8.4.2 Automatic Receptacle Control for 220 volts systems

Hi Everyone

We have a Project in a location where the electric supply is in 220 volts. 

I was wondering if this argument is sufficient to claim for an exemption to this requirement as it specifically mentions 125 volt receptacles.

Thanks in advance

Agustín

The idea is to control plug loads. If everything is 220v then you should be seeking opportunities to control the plug load energy use. It does not matter if the voltage on those loads is different in my opinion.
