Slide 2: Welcome! Meet your hosts
Script: Today’s training is presented by PECI, a third party consulting firm.
My name is Eric Mullendore and I’ll be your presenter today. Joining me on the chat function in WebEx is my colleague, Phil Jordan.
For the past two years, we’ve both been providing technical support services to SCE’s Customer’s
Authorized Agents. I’ll be providing some contact information at the end of the session in case you are interested in taking advantage of these services.
After today’s webinar we will provide a copy of the presentation to attendees.
All phones are muted so please use the chat function to communicate and Phil will respond.

Slide 3: Agenda
Script: The training will start with a discussion of the LPD requirements in Title 24 and how these requirements are used in to set the code baseline for Customized Solutions lighting applications.
The version of Title 24 that takes effect on July 1, 2014 has a number of new requirements for lighting controls so the bulk of today’s presentation will focus on those updates and how they impact eligibility for incentives through Express and Customized Solutions.
In the last couple slides we’ll take a look at the resources available to help you understand Title 24 requirements in more detail and how to follow up on questions about how the code is used in Incentives
Applications.
Content:
• Title 24 Impact on Lighting Power Density (LPD)

• Title 24 Impact on Lighting Controls
• Resources
Slide 4: Learning Objectives
Script: Every training we do, we present the learning objectives within the first couple slides. Hopefully after the presentation you’ll be able to:
• Identify which components of a lighting project exceed Title 24 requirements
• Locate resources to ensure retrofit projects comply with Title 24 requirements
Content: At the end of this session, you will be able to:
• Identify which components of a lighting project exceed Title 24 requirements
• Locate resources to ensure retrofit projects comply with Title 24 requirements
Slide 5: Lighting Power Density (LPD)
Slide 6: Lighting Power Density Definition
Script: Define LPD and scope within Title 24
From the 2013 standards Section 100.1, an Enclosed Space is “space that is substantially surrounded by solid surfaces, including walls, ceilings or roofs, doors, fenestration areas, and floors or ground”
(basically a room or corridor).
Content: Lighting Power Density (LPD) is the amount of electrical power used to illuminate a space, expressed in Watts per unit of area (W/ft 2 ).
Title 24 defines a maximum allowable LPD for:
• New construction, and
• Lighting retrofits impacting ≥10% of fixtures per enclosed space
Slide 7:

Script: Under Title 24, there are three approaches to establishing the maximum allowable LPD: whole building, area/category or tailored.
These same methods can be used to establish the Code LPD baseline for calculated lighting projects.
Most projects will use either the whole building or area method. The tailored method is used to account for spaces with special lighting needs and is available only when the other two methods aren’t available.
If you think your project may require the tailored method please contact the CAA Technical Support team to discuss.
Content:
1) Whole Building
• Only used when one type of occupancy makes up ≥90% of the entire building
• Retail, wholesale stores, hotel/motels, and high-rise residential buildings may not use this method
2) Area/Category
• Used when there is a need to exclude areas, such as main entry areas, lobbies, corridors, restrooms, & support functions
• Used when the project does not fit one of the Title 24 building type definitions
3) Tailored Method
• Includes special power allowances
• Contact CAA Technical Support if this method is to be used
Slide 8: Impact on Applications to SCE
Script: There are a few types of projects that don’t require Lighting Power Density calculations.
There is a separate training focused on the LPD Calculator, which is a tool SCE’s engineering team has developed to assist with custom lighting retrofits. It’s not required but I’d recommend at least reviewing how it works as it includes not only the LPD values from Title 24 but also the CDF and HVAC Interactive
Effects Factors, which are required by SCE for most interior lighting retrofits.
Content: SCE requires LPD calculations for all lighting retrofits, except:
• Express Solutions
• Exterior lighting

• Lamp only
• Dimming ballast only
SCE’s LPD Calculator is not required but recommended, and includes:
• Title 24 LPD Baselines
• Coincident Diversity Factors (CDF)
• HVAC Interactive Effects Factors
Slide 9: Lighting Controls
Slide 10: Policy
Script: See Table 141.0-E (p. 212) in Title 24 for details
To qualify as a modification-in-place, the modification to a luminaire must be limited to one or more of the following methods:
• Replacing lamps and ballasts with like type or quantity in a manner that preserves the original luminaire listing.
• Changing the number or type of light source in a luminaire, including: socket renewal, removal or relocation of sockets or lampholders, and/or related wiring internal to the luminaire, including the addition of safety disconnecting devices.
• Changing the optical system (e.g. reflector) of a luminaire in part or in whole.
• Replacing whole luminaires one-for-one in which the only electrical modification involves disconnecting the existing luminaire and reconnecting the replacement luminaire
Content:
• Controls must exceed applicable Title 24 requirements to be eligible for incentives.
• Control requirements are triggered when ≥10% of the luminaires are impacted by a retrofit.
• If <40 luminaires are impacted and retrofit is categorized as modifications-in-place, then controls compliance isn’t triggered for the whole space.
Slide 11: Occupancy/Vacancy Control

Script: See Section 130.1(a) in Title 24 for details of shut-off control requirements
Content:
• Shut-off control based on occupancy control is required in most interior spaces.
• SCE retired integral fixture occupancy sensor Solutions Codes from Express Solutions (LT-41007 and LT-76101).
• All other occupancy sensor Solution Codes are limited to projects that don’t trigger code requirement for occupancy sensors (LT-58209, LT-98724, LT-38102, LT-36254, LT-10867).
Slide 12: Daylighting
Script: Daylighting controls are covered in Section 130.1 (d) of the 2013 standards.
Applicability to retrofits is covered in Section 141.0.
Content:
• Multi-level, automatic daylighting control is required for most spaces with available skylights and sidelighting (windows).
• Daylighting is not required when total lighting power in the daylit zone is < 120 watts or in rooms that have < 24 SF of glazing area.
• Daylighting is not required in retrofits where the LPD is ≤ 85% of the maximum allowable LPD.
• SCE will accept applications where the applicant is only retrofitting ballasts and controls as
Retrofit Add-on (LT-36502, LT-49584, LT-78223, LT-89432, LT-90853, LT-74751).
Slide 13: Bi-Level Switching
Script: See Section 130.1(c)6 and 130.1(c)7 of 2013 version of Title 24 for details of code requirements.
Content:
• Bi-level switching based on occupancy (Partial On/Off) is required for:
− Stairwells,
− Corridors,
− Parking garages

− Warehouses
− Library book aisles
• SCE has added requirement to Express Solution Codes for Bi-level Fluorescent Fixtures (LT-69302 and LT-48107) to clarify that they apply only to Retrofit Add-on projects.
Slide 14: Exterior Lighting Controls
Script: 2013 standards Section 130.2 (c) 1. – All installed outdoor lighting shall be controlled by photocontrol or outdoor astronomical time-switch control that automatically turns OFF the outdoor lighting when daylight is available.
For specifics regarding outdoor lighting mounted 24 ft or less above the ground refer to the 2013 standards Section 130.2 (c) 3.
Content:
• Astronomical timeclock or photocell control is required for most exterior lighting.
• If fixtures mounted 24 ft or less above the ground, bi-level or dimming control based on occupancy is required.
• SCE has expired Express Solutions for Exterior Timeclock and Photocell Control (LT-22809 and
LT-68108).
