Continue to develop your list of occupancy space types and the associated lighting controls.
Include all lighting control locations and specifications in the drawings and bid documents, and develop floor plans indicating the location and type of lighting controls.
Residences can meet this requirement with appropriately located, switch-operated plug receptacles. If no hardwired lighting is provided in a space, floor lamps controlled by a switch will still meet the credit requirements.
All daylight and occupancy controls must have a manual override to count toward the credit requirements. (This refers only to spaces that are applicable to the relevant space types. Non-regularly-occupied spaces such as bathrooms would not apply.)
Ideally, when specifying task or ambient lighting, lighting position should be adjustable and have multiple light levels. However, the credit can be satisfied with lights that simply turn on and off.
Examine project space allocation to evaluate whether there are any areas that present a challenge for meeting the requirements, or space programming that makes lighting controls inappropriate for the space.
