1513 Li9hting Controls. Lighting, including exempt lighting in <br />Section 1512, shall comply with lhis sectian. Where occupancy <br />sensors are cited, they shall have the features lisled in Sedion <br />7513.6.1. Where auromatic time switches are cited, they shall <br />have the features listed in Section 1513.62. <br />151J.1 Local Control and Accessibility: Each space, <br />enclosed by walls or ceiling•height partitions, shall be provided <br />with lighting controls located within that space. The lighting <br />contmis, whether one or more, shall be capable of lurning off <br />ail lights within the space. The conirols shall be readily <br />accessible, at the point of entry/exit, to personnel occupying or <br />using the space. <br />EXCEPTIONS: The following lighling conlrols may be <br />centralized in remote locations: <br />7. Lighting controls lor spaces which musl be used <br />as a whole. <br />2. Automatic controls. <br />3. Controls requinng trained operators. <br />4. Controls lor safety hazards and security. <br />1513.2 Area Controls: The maximum lightiny �ower that may <br />be controlled from a single switch or automatic conu�; �hall not <br />exceed that which is pmvided by a Rvenly ampere circuit <br />loaded to not more lhan eighty percent. A master control may <br />be installed provided ihe individual switches retain their <br />capability to function indepentlently. Circuit breakers may not <br />be used as the sole means of switching. <br />EXCEPTIONS: <br />7. Industrial or manufacWring process areas, as <br />may be required for production. <br />2. Areas less than fve percent of footprint for <br />footpnnts over 100.000 square feel. <br />1513.3 Daylight Zonc Control: All daylighted zones, as <br />defned in Chapter 2, both under overhead glazing and <br />atljacent to verti:al giazing, shall be provided wilh individual <br />centrols, or daylight-or occupant-sensing aulomatie eontrols. <br />•xhich control ihe lights independenl o(general area lighting. <br />Contiguous daylight zones ad;acent to vertical glazing are <br />allowed to 6e controlled by a single controllinn device provided <br />that they do not include zones facing more than rivo adjacent <br />cardinal orientations (i.e. ncnh, east, south, west). Daylight <br />mnes under overhead glazing more than 15 (eet from the <br />pzrimeter shall be controlled separately (rom daylight zones <br />adjacent to vertical glazing. , <br />EXCEPTION: <br />Daylight spaces enGosed by walls or ceiling <br />height partitions and coNaining 2 or fewer light <br />fiMures are not required to have a separate switch for <br />general area lighting. <br />1513.4 Display, Exhibition, and Specialty Lighting <br />Controls: All dispiay, exhibition, or spcciaity lighting shall be <br />controiled independently of general area lighting. <br />1513.5 Automalic ShubOff Controls, Exterior. Exterior <br />lighting not intended for 24•hour continuous use shall be <br />automatically switched by 6mer, photocell. or a combinaticn of <br />timer and photocell. Automatic time switches must also have <br />program back•up capabililies, which prevent the loss uf <br />progrem and time settings for at least 10 hours, if power is <br />interrapted. <br />1513.6 Automat: Shut-0H Controls, Inlorior: Office <br />bui�dinqs greater �hen 5,000 sq. fl. and all school classrocros <br />shall Lc equipped with separate automatic controls to shut off <br />the lighting dunng ,moccupled hours. Automatic wntrols may <br />be an occupancy smsor, time swikh, or other device capa6le <br />of aulomatically shu'ting oH lighting. <br />EXCEPTIOIIS: <br />1. Areas that must be coNinuously illuminated. or <br />illuminattd in a manner reqwring manual <br />operation o( the lighting. <br />2. Emergenc, i�ghting systems. <br />3. Switching ix industrial or manufacWring proczss <br />facilities as may be required for proCuction. <br />1513.6.1 Occupancy Sensors: Occupancy sensors shall oe <br />capable of 2utomaucally turning of( all the lights in an area no <br />more than 30 minutes aher the area has been vawted. <br />1517.6.2 Automatic Time Swilches: Automatic time switches <br />shall have a minimum 7 day clock and be capable of being set <br />for 7 di(ferent day rypes per week and incorporete an automatic <br />holiday "shut-off' feature, which turns off all loads for at least <br />24 hours and then resumes rortnally scheduled operations <br />Automatic time switches shall also have program back-up <br />capabilities, which prevent the loss of program acd time <br />seltings for at least 10 hours, if power is interrupted <br />Automatic time switches shall incorporate an cver-r�de <br />switching device which: <br />a) is readily accessible; <br />b) is located so ihat a person using the device can see th•a <br />lights or the areas controlled by the switch, or so that the <br />area being illuminated is annunciated�, and <br />c) is manually opereted; <br />d) allows the lighting to remain on for no more than two hours <br />when an over-ride is initiated; and <br />e) controls an area not exceeding 5,000 square feet or 5 <br />percent of fwtprint for tootprints over 100,000 square feet, <br />whichever is grealer. <br />1519.7 Commissioning Requirements: For lighting controls <br />which include daylighl or occupant sensing automatic cont•ols, <br />automatic shul-of( conlrols, occupancy sensors, or automaiic <br />lime swiiches, lhe hghting controls shall be tested to ensure <br />that control devices, components. equipment and systems are <br />calibreted, adjusted and operate in aaordance with approred <br />plans and specifications. Sequences o( ope2tion shall be <br />(unctionally tes;ed to ensure they operate in accordance v.�th <br />approved plans and specifcatlons. A complete report of test <br />procedures and results shall be prepared and fded �vith the <br />owner. Drawing notes shali require commissloning in <br />accordance with this oaragraph. <br />
