style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;color:#1F497D'>The way I simplified
this for our engineers is the following: any and all spaces will have 2 levels
of code-required control.  The first will comply with 9.4.1.1 and the
second will comply with 9.4.1.2.  As an example, for a typical private
office our engineers have been using wall devices that have an occ sensor with
a manual control.  If that is the only controls that cover the private
office, then the occ sensor complies with 9.4.1.1 and the manual switch
complies with 9.4.1.2; no credit from Table G3.2 would be allowed since both
control methods are required by 9.4.1.  Now, if there is a time clock in
the building and the private office were connected to the time clock with the
same wall device the situation would be different: the time clock would comply
with 9.4.1.1 and the manual switch would comply with 9.4.1.2 leaving the
occupancy sensor as an additional control, eligible in Table G3.2 for a 10% LPD
credit against the PROPOSED LPD factors.  For a classroom in a community
center, if the lighting is setup for multiple purposes and the space is on the
building time clock, then you just have compliance with 9.4.1.2 and 9.4.1.1
respectively.  If you put in an occ sensor (some control logic required
due to the multiscene) then you can take credit for that sensor in Table G3.2.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
