Book ·
OSTI ID:5544163
This guide enables a building owner/manager to decide which cost saving and energy conservation measures will work best for his particular lighting situation. It is anticipated that he will utilize his own knowledge of and experience with his building to develop and implement a lighting conservation program. In all but the most unusual situations, compliance with this Standard will not require the use of outside contractual services. Section 1 establishes an easy-to-follow procedure which a building operator may use to determine his present lighting power usage for the various rooms and spaces in his building, and then calculate the allowable lighting power budget for the building. Sections 2 through 5 describe methods which may be used to meet the lighting power budget for buildings and Section 7 describes a means for determining the cost effectiveness of the various methods.
