<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you very much Nick. I really appreciate your help

<p class=MsoNormal> <br>
I really got confused with this when I got a commnet recently saying that the
"baseline case per section 9.4.1.2 were not modeled" and was asked to
revised the baseline. So I ended up with no savings. This is in conflict with
Table G3.1.6 that you have pointed out which says that No automatic lighting
controls shall be modeled in the baseline building design. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Does it mean that I am wrong when I applied also 10% savings
to my baseline? This is where I got confused since 9.4.1.1.b also
mentions occupant sensor that shall turn lighting off within 30 mins of
occupant leaving the space. <o:p></o:p></p>

One of the options here is to have programmable (time-of-day) shutoff for
interior lighting circuits, and you can infer from between Table G3.1 and G3.2
of Appendix G that baseline models are taken to feature only such timeclock
controls for automatic shutoff. Further, it’s taken that the lighting
scheduling being kept identical between the proposed and baseline adequately
reflects the minimum requirements, so you aren’t supposed to try to explicitly
model the programmable shutoff. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am confused on the mandatory provision 9.4.1.1 which
states that building larger than 5000 ft2 shall have automatic control device. Does
it mean that mid-rise and high rise building cannot claim for credit
in occupancy sensors shown in Table G3.2 because their GFA is more than 5000
ft2 and only small office can claim for this credit? I am sure I am not
interpreting this section correct since from what I read, other modelers
are claiming for savings for buildings with more than 5000 ft2 area for
occupancy sensors even if mandatory requirements states that this is required
which means baseline building will also have occupancy sensors.<o:p></o:p></p>
