<div>David & Nick are both correct-just remember either 'space-for-space' OR 'area-by-area'. I always use the area method--only for the reason that I get bored and annoyed looking up individual space LPD's in the chapter 9 table. It is more interesting to me to do the space take-offs for my proposed building and calculate the zone area-average LPD -it helps me get more familiar with the characteristics of the spaces/zones I am modeling. In some models where we don't have reflected ceiling plans or LPD-zone take-off from the lighting desingers then I can still assume the area method which keeps my inputs simplified. </div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="COLOR: black">Appendix G in 2004 says to use the same method of categorization that you use in the proposed building. This would be especially important if the areas of the project have varying schedules or methods of lighting control.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="COLOR: #1f497d">I am no USGBC reviewer, but I have submitted comparative models in the past using the “actual” design, and working out an equivalent LPD for the whole building applied uniformly to the spaces. I do not think there is anything preventing you from entering the individual space LPD’s in the proposed model, excepting that could take a bit more time. You may find it pushes your energy savings further however depending on the rest of your model.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="COLOR: #1f497d">In the baseline interior LPD I have gone with building area method, but for proposed the electrical floor plans as given space by space LPD ,if I go with space by method in proposed ASHRAE recommends ? or shall I have to go with both identical like if I follow building area method in baseline identical in proposed if yes, than can I take average LPD of the all spaces?</span></p>
