Value of Lighting Control for Office Buildings

Energy codes and Green Building design trends share one common goal – saving energy. Lighting
usage in today’s office buildings accounts for approximately 38% of total energy use. As of 1999 there
were 738,000 office buildings in the United States using approximately 18.7 kWh/ft2 of electricity. This
equates to spending approximately $1.30/ft2 on electricity, and $0.50/ft2 on lighting energy use.

Lighting controls can reduce energy costs significantly. One research project estimated the expected
energy cost savings from the use of occupancy sensors in private offices, conference rooms, and
restrooms to be approximately 26%, 27%, and 40%, respectively*. These savings are realized simply
by turning lighting off when the rooms are unoccupied and lighting is not needed. In addition,
daylighting controls can further reduce lighting energy use by switching or dimming electric lighting
when sufficient daylight is present.

Office Building Space Usage

Space usage in an office building varies depending on the space type, occupant patterns, and type of
work being done. Private offices, conference rooms, and restrooms are generally better suited for
occupancy based control because of the unpredictable and varied occupancy of these spaces. Other
areas, such as open offices and hallways, where schedules are more predictable, may be better
suited for time based control.

Space ownership plays an equally important role in the design and selection of lighting controls. In
areas where ownership is strongest, manual override controls might be desirable. Common areas,
where no single occupant or group of occupants has ownership, may benefit more with automated
control.

Cycling and Maintenance Costs”, Maniccia, et. al.

Influential Factors for Lighting Control

Energy Code Requirements

The U.S. Department of Energy has ruled that every state must adopt an energy standard at least as
stringent as ASHRAE 90.1-1999 by July 15, 2004. A major component of this standard requires
automatic lighting shut off control for buildings greater than 5000 square feet. This means that
occupancy sensing, time scheduling or signalling from building automation systems must be used to
automatically turn lights off. In addition are requirements for controlling individual spaces, location of
space controls and control of exterior lighting. A brief overview of the ASHRAE lighting control
requirements is provided on pages 56-57 of this guide.

Green Building Design

The U.S. Green Buildings Council’s LEED program encourages architects to use a holistic building
design approach. This includes optimizing daylight penetration and views to the exterior and designing
well-integrated systems that maximize energy savings. In a Green Building design, lighting control is
important for three primary reasons. First, they enable compliance with ASHRAE 90.1-1999, which is
a LEED prerequisite. Second, LEED encourages daylighting design, thereby allowing energy savings
by dimming or turning off electric lights when they’re not needed. Third, electrical energy usage can be
further reduced by integrating the operation of lighting and mechanical systems.

Safety and Security

Providing lighting when and where needed is a key factor of safety and security. Proper design and
use of lighting controls is an integral part of addressing these concerns. Location and accessibility to
manual controls, adequate night lighting, timely exterior lighting control, reliable system operation as
well as other lighting control elements, all play a part in ensuring safety and security in commercial
office buildings.

Energy Efficiency
With rising energy costs, making commercial office facilities operate as efficiently as possible is of
increasing importance. Good lighting control design not only reduces costs, but also supports our
responsibility toward preserving non-renewable resources that are used to create energy.

Office Building Lighting Control Design Guidelines

A well designed control system requires the consideration of energy codes, the occupants’ and
building owner’s control needs, building use patterns and the type of lighting that is used in each
space. Listed below are some general lighting control principles for individual spaces, exterior lighting,
and whole-building lighting control.

General
• Where daylighting is available, provide daylighting controls. Use continuous dimming for spaces
with minor motion activity such as reading, writing, and conferencing. Use stepped dimming (on/off
switching) for spaces with major motion activity such as walking and shelf stocking.
• Always mount ultrasonic occupancy sensors at least 6 to 8 ft away from HVAC ducts on vibration
free surfaces and place so there is no detection out the door or opening of the space.
• In spaces of high occupant ownership such as private offices and conference rooms, always
include switches for manual override control of the lighting.
• If there is concern that lighting could be turned off automatically or manually when people are still
in the space, put in night lighting for safe egress.
• Many lighting control devices have specific voltage and load ratings requirements. Be sure to
specify the device model that matches the correct voltage and load rating for the application.
Conference Rooms
• Use dual technology occupancy sensors in larger conference rooms for optimal detection of both
small hand motion and larger body movement.
• Ceiling or corner-mounted passive infrared occupancy sensors are used for medium and small
conference rooms.
• Always include switches that provide manual override control of the lighting.
Cubicles
• Control plug loads such as task lighting, computer monitors, portable fans and heaters with an
occupancy sensor controlled plug strip.
• Mount personal occupancy sensor beneath binder bin or desk and position so that it cannot detect
motion outside cubicle area.
Hallways/Elevator Lobbies/Common Areas
• Hallways and common areas are best suited for automatic on/off control of lighting using time
scheduled or occupancy sensor control.
Kitchens/Lunch Rooms
• Ceiling or corner mounted passive infrared occupancy sensors are typically used.
Private Offices
• Ceiling mounted, corner mounted or wall switch passive infrared occupancy sensors are used for
medium and small offices, dual technology sensors for larger offices.
• Always include switches that provide manual override control of the lighting.

O f f i c e B u i l d i n g s

Open Office Spaces

• The Best Practice for open office areas is dependent upon the building size and the owner’s needs.
For small, single floor office buildings or an open office area in a leased space, occupancy sensors
are a good strategy. For larger, owner occupied, or multi-floor tenants, scheduling using lighting
control panels is recommended because one time clock can control lighting on multiple floors.
Combining both scheduled and occupancy sensor control offers the benefit and convenience of
keeping lighting on during normal hours of operation, yet after hours allows occupancy based
control for additional energy savings
• For maximum energy efficiency after hours, lighting control zones should be designed as small as
reasonable so fewer lights are turned on by an occupant after hours and less energy is used.
• When occupancy sensors are used in spaces with partitions, use ceiling mounted ultrasonic
sensors because they can detect motion over partition walls. Follow proper spacing guidelines for
optimum sensor coverage (see page 36).
Restrooms
• Use ceiling mounted ultrasonic sensors for restrooms with stalls.
Stairwells
• Use ultrasonic sensor mounted above the doorway, or door swing, to control stairwell lighting.
• Use a normally closed power pack for “fail safe ON” operation.
Utility Closets
• Use a digital timer switch for allowing manual activation and for lights automatically turning off.
Exterior Lighting Control
• Use a lighting control panel with time clock and photocell to control exterior lighting to turn on at
dusk and off at dawn and turn non-security lighting off earlier in the evening for energy savings.
• Circuit different exterior lighting fixtures to be controlled separately by the lighting control panel.
This allows different lighting to turn on at different levels of illumination according to application
need. For example, entry lighting may turn on earlier than parking lot lighting.

Whole-building Lighting Control Design

When designing lighting controls to meet individual space needs, one must recognize that spaces may
be linked to an overall lighting control system. In a small office building, this may be a single lighting
control panel and time clock located in an electrical room. In an office campus with multiple buildings,
this may be multiple lighting control panels in each building sharing lighting control information over a
dataline network – all centrally operated from a facility manager’s office. Additionally, these lighting
control systems may be linked to mechanical systems for integrated control.

• In buildings requiring multiple lighting control panels, it is more convenient to centralize the time
clock and exterior photocell in a lighting control panel. Use a dataline network to communicate time
schedules and light level events to other lighting control panels in the system.
• If the features of centralized lighting control programming, monitoring and trend analysis are
needed (as would be typically needed for medium to large sized office buildings or multiple building
sites), use a system with lighting control software that operates on a personal computer.

Office Building Best Practice Guide Roadmap

This Best Practice Guide uses the office building footprint below as a working key plan. Each space
type in the floorplan has at least one lighting control best practice contained in the guide. Determine a
best practice lighting control design for each building space by using the summary chart (next page) to
find the solution that fits your space needs. Additional solutions are included for exterior lighting and
for overall building-wide lighting control system design.

These best practice designs address typical control needs in common office spaces. Although not
described in this guide, many other areas in an office building are ideal for lighting control including
lobbies, atriums, cafeterias, warehouses, exercise rooms, IT server rooms and more.

lights on upon occupancy. The sensor is mounted in the corner of the room, along the same wall as the door, so that detection
outside the door does not occur. Bi-level switching is accomplished by switching alternate luminaires using the two wall
switches. One luminaire is on a night light circuit and is not controlled by the occupancy sensor.

Manual Overrides
Individual space control is required by ASHRAE 90.1-2001. Since the open plan area is greater than 10,000 sq ft, the maximum
control zone size is 10,000 sq ft. However, the open office area is divided into 8 zones to provide local zone switching and overrides
using the dataline switches. Each switch is programmed to control one relay, and must be manually activated to turn lighting on. If

p
needed, reprogramming can be done simply at either the switch or lighting control panel locations.

Cleaning Switches
Cleaning switches are provided in the janitorial closets located in the core area. The third DIP switch must be set to the off position in
order to change operation to provide a cleaning function. This function allows the cleaning staff to turn on or off a large area without
affecting occupants in the space. When in cleaning mode, any button on the switch will turn on the relays that are Smartwired to the
switch button. This is similar to the standard configuration; however, when the button is toggled off, any relays that are on because of
an occupant override will remain on.

Daylighting
e

The single zone LCD dimming system is used for automatically dimming lights based upon available daylight. The LS-190C
photocell reads light levels at the window and provides this information to the LCD control module, which raises or lowers light output
c

accordingly. Each daylight control zone uses its own photocell, so that variations in daylight based upon compass orientation are
accounted for. Since the LCD modules are located in the lighting control panels, long tubs (-D designation) are used.

Design Considerations
Lighting is controlled based on time schedules, manual control and daylighting, as in OF-OP1.0 (see page 25). The LCD

f
dimming system is used for automatically dimming two lighting zones based upon available daylight. The LS-190C photocell
reads light levels at the window, and provides this information to the LCD control module, which raises or lowers electric light
output accordingly. One photocell is used for the north facade, and one for the south, so that variations in daylight are

i
accounted for. Each photocell is wired to one multizone LCD module, which is used for setting the calibration levels for each
daylight control zone. The LCD modules are located in the lighting control panel to facilitate commissioning and maintenance.
Long panels (-D designation) are required.

f
(see OF-CU1.0 p.17)

Design Considerations
Pendant lighting is automatically turned on and off using the W series ultrasonic occupancy sensors. The sensors are spaced on a

f
20’ x 16’ grid to control individual zones, and to assure adequate coverage with partitions. Wallwashers are manually turned on as
a person enters the area using the AS-110 automatic control switch. While the area is occupied, the occupancy sensor will hold
the lighting on. After the area is vacated and after the sensor’s time delay expires, power interruption to the load will occur and

i
wallwashers will turn off. If this happens while the area is still occupied, movement in the area within 15 seconds will turn lighting
back on. If no motion is detected within 15 seconds, the AS-110 will keep wallwashers off, and the switch will need to be pushed
to turn lighting on again. Each AS-110 switch is wired for 3-way operation and can be used for turning wallwashers on or off, or for

c
overriding a shut off signal. For compliance with California’s Title 24, two wall switches must be added for bi-level and area control
of lighting in each space (not shown). To comply, the switches must be circuited to reduce the lighting by at least one half while
maintaining a uniform level of illuminance.

O f f i c e
The DT-200 Dual Technology occupancy sensor is used to automatically turn lights off when the room is unoccupied, and turn
lights on upon occupancy. The sensor is mounted in the corner, to prevent a view out the doorway that might otherwise result in
false activations. An LS-201 dimming light level sensor, mounted on the ceiling, dims the lamps in the row parallel to the window
when enough daylight is present. Two wall switches are used to manually override off each row of lamps within the fixtures. A
third wall switch is used for switching wallwash lighting. The Isolé plug load control is used at the workstation for turning off plug
loads (including task lighting) when the office is unoccupied. The personal sensor is mounted to the underside of the binder bin,
so that it is not facing the door, and is facing the primary work area.

Design Considerations
The WI-300 automatic wall switch sensor is used to automatically turn lights off when the office is unoccupied, and turn lights on
upon occupancy. The sensor installs in place of a standard wall switch. It must have a clear view of occupants at the workspace
and cannot be blocked by furniture such as file cabinets. Dual auto-off buttons, allow the user to manually turn on and off each
of 2 loads, providing bi-level control. The WI-300’s built-in light level sensor only affects the secondary relay. If adequate daylight
is present, the sensor will hold secondary lights off until natural light levels drop. The Isolé plug load control is used at the
workstation for turning off plug loads (including task lighting) when the office is unoccupied. The personal sensor is mounted to
the underside of the binder bin, so that it is not facing the door, and is facing the primary work area.

Design Considerations
A WT-1105 ultrasonic occupancy sensor is ceiling mounted in each restroom, turning lighting on when the restroom is occupied
and off when unoccupied. The choice of ultrasonic sensor was made because it can detect occupancy around stall partitions

o
and other obstacles. The sensor is powered by a power pack that is snapped into the junction box knockout. An auxiliary pack
is used for controlling the exhaust fan using either restroom’s occupancy sensor. This is necessary since the fan is a different
voltage than the lighting load and is on a separate circuit. Night lighting is not controlled and remains on at all times.

The WPIR passive infrared sensor is mounted on the ceiling, in the corner of the restroom, turning lights and the fan on when
the space is occupied and off when vacant. The sensor is powered by a power pack that is located next to the junction box. In
this application, the sensor choice is passive infrared because there are no stall partitions that could block the sensor’s view of
occupants. The wall switch provides a manual override off of the lighting and the fan.

Design Considerations
The WT ultrasonic occupancy sensor is used to automatically turn lights on and off based on occupancy. The sensor is

w
commonly located on the wall, instead of beneath the stair landing, because there is typically less vibration at the wall. Because
the luminaire is mounted on the wall above the door, the sensor is mounted on the stairwell wall, above the door swing area (on
the wall perpendicular to the door location). The occupancy sensor detects the motion of the stairwell door opening, and turns
the lighting on. Because all wiring is surface mounted, the sensor is mounted to an outlet box using screw mounts, rather than

e
the threaded nipple, and the power pack is mounted in an oversized switch box. Emergency lighting is supplied by a separate
emergency lighting circuit.

copy rooms. The TS-200 can be set to a 3 hour time out period which complies with ASHRAE 90.1-2001, and can be set to
shorter time outs to comply with Title 24. The 1 minute flash and beep warnings allow time for the occupants to reset the switch
before lights time out if the room is still occupied. Simply pushing the button will reset the timer to the preset time out setting.

t

1. Adjust the TS-200 time switch DIP settings for time-out period, time scrolling, flash and beeper options before installing the
switch. Refer to installation instructions for details.
e

2. Time switch time-out is factory preset at 3 hours. The time-out setting should be set to allow for the completion of common
tasks in the space. If complying with ASHRAE 90.1-1999 or 2001, the maximum allowable time-out setting is 4 hours. If
complying with California Title 24, the maximum allowable time-out setting is 2 hours.
s

3. Time scrolling allows the user to manually and temporarily override the time-out periods. Scrolling is factory preset for
scrolling “up” which means that the time-out setting will increase while the button is held down (this is the recommended
setting for utility closets).

ASHRAE 90.1 - 2001 Energy Standard

e

The ASHRAE 90.1-2001 Standard is available for purchase through ASHRAE. Visit www.ashrae.org to
purchase the standard through its online bookstore. Lighting control highlights include:
d

Automatic Lighting Shut off*

• Buildings larger than 5000 sq ft must use an automatic control device to turn off lighting in all spaces.
o

The automatic control device shall be either:

- A programmable time scheduling device, where an independent program schedule shall be
provided for areas less than or equal to 25,000 sq ft, and at least one program schedule per floor,
C

or
- An occupancy sensor that turns lighting off within 30 minutes after the space is vacated, or
- An unoccupied control signal from another control or alarm system

Space Control
• Each space that’s enclosed by ceiling-height partitions must have at least one control device that
y

independently controls the general lighting in the space. Each control device shall be activated either
by an occupancy sensor, or manually by an occupant.
- For spaces equal to or less than 10,000 sq ft, each control device shall control a maximum of 2500 sq ft
g

- For spaces greater than 10,000 sq ft, each control device shall control zones no larger than 10,000 sq ft
- Each control device shall be capable of overriding the automatic lighting shut off for no more than
four hours
r

- Each control device shall be readily accessible and located so that the occupant can see lights
from the controlling switch**
e

Exterior Lighting Control

• Lighting for all exterior applications not exempted in the Standard, shall be controlled by a photocell
n

or astronomical time clock.

Tandem Wiring
E

• Luminaires that are in the same space and on the same control device, using one or three linear
fluorescent lamps greater than 30 watts each, shall use two-lamp tandem-wired ballasts in place of
single-lamp ballasts.

Energy code provisions vary from state to state. For more information, visit the Department of Energy
website at www.energycodes.gov, which provides current information on the status of state energy
codes as well as compliance and training tools.

*Lighting intended for 24 hour operation does not require an automatic control device.
**Remote location is permitted for reasons of safety or security.

Must be able to override automatic shut off control, but not
for more than four hours (not applicable to occupancy sensors)
Must be accessible and located so controlled lighting is visible
to the occupant

Comply with all other provisions of

ASHRAE 90.1 - 2001, section 9

*ASHRAE 90.1 is under continuous maintenance. ASHRAE 90.1-2001 is the first revision of 90.1-1999.
One of the most significant changes clarified the language for automatic-off methods. The 1999 version
listed scheduling, occupancy sensing, or by occupant intervention as acceptable auto-off methods. 90.1-
2001 replaces “by occupancy intervention” with “by other system signal” as shown above.
