Case Study
Leviton’s EnOcean-based Lighting Controls LEED the Way to Platinum
Sustainability.
The Customer
Leggat McCall Properties, a large
regional real estate development
company headquartered in New
England. Leggat McCall viewed the
relocation of its corporate offices as
an opportunity to challenge traditional
construction standards.
The Challenge
Using traditional methods, integrators
estimated the installation would
require 12 weeks for installation; the
team installed the energy
management system in 15 days and
was able to minimize office closures
due to the fact that wiring obstacles
were averted. Installation challenges
were:
o
Hard to Wire Retrofit: The
office building featured hard to
wire locations with
differentiating walls and
construction.
o
Zero Maintenance: Project
specifications required the
controls operate maintenancefree.
The Solution
Starting with a frame and shell, the
company completed a full interior
renovation, a project that normally
takes 12 weeks, in just 15 days. The
company used EnOcean-based
ILLUMRA controls to help complete
project goals making the building LEED
platinum certified and California Title
24 Compliant. The “Peel-n-stick”
wireless sensors & switches enabled
