within Credit 2 Optimize Energy Performance? Is this type of lighting control suitable for your design? 6 Interior Lighting? Is this type of lighting control suitable for your design?
A: Yes, these controls work for my design A: All types are suitable but only (3) seen in the waiting area

DESIGN CRITERIA
Given the nature of the space
controls are very important to set NTS
moods and portray appropriate
light quantity. The waiting area
is theoretically the most used REFLECTED CEILING
area so it requires proper lighting PLAN
for the host and occupants.
Although the area is spastically
used in which sensors will help
control the electrical output. M6.3
