<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Since eQUEST uses the split flux method of calculating daylighting, you can take one zone with windows and apply the dimming control to it - getting a scalable
answer to your question (i.e. the resulting data can give you the answer with the following method: #of lights in space/total Watts for given hour). If different fixture types are used in the same space, a weighting factor can be added to the previous stated
equation to get the requested result. I hope this helps.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the lights. This profile consists of electricity consumption for all the light sources in the building. I want to view electricity consumption of only one light source (near a window) being dimmed by a photo sensor. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black">One option I can think of is to model the building with only one light source near the window and have dimming control for it. The hourly report will then show daily electricity
consumption for this light source alone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
