Lars,
By Default, all the electric loads go to EM1. If you want to assign
internal end-uses to different meters you can do it through the air-side
HVAC zone tab. As always - if you want to modify the end use metering
for a single zone, change it manually. If you want to modify the end use
metering for all the zones, change the default (so you don't have to go
in and do them one at a time.
You probably already know this, but when you create a second meter it
doesn't get added automatically to the utility rate, you have to go in
and add it there.
Hope this helps

Subject: [Equest-users] Electric meters & loads
DOE2-2ers,
I have read the ELEC-METER pages of the DOE2-2 dictionary and just
don't see how to assign the various electrical loads from my building to
the meters. It mentions "INTERIOR-POWER", "INTERIOR-SCH",
"INTERIOR-EU", "EXTERIOR-POWER", "EXTERIOR-SCH", and "EXTERIOR-EU", but
offers no clarifying examples. Furthermore, "INTERIOR-POWER" and
"EXTERIOR-POWER" are described as accepting "...a list of up to 10
values of hourly electrical energy consumed by miscellaneous uses...
...that do not show up anywhere else." Clear as mud.
Electrically-powered HVAC systems exist. Electrically-powered DHW
systems exist. Various lighting systems will be defined and assigned to
spaces. Exterior lighting systems will be defined. I just want to
asssign these electrical loads to their proper meters.
Does anybody know how to do this? Does anyone have an excerpt from
a .inp file that can serve as a clarifying example?
Thanks.
