(.Ighting - General Requirements <br />1513 Lithting Controls. Lighting, including exempt lighting in <br />Section 1512, shall comply with this section. Where occupancy <br />sensors are cited, they shall have the features listed in Section <br />1513 6.1. Where automatic time switches are cited, they shall <br />have the features listed in Section I613.6.2. <br />1513.1 Local Control and Accessibility: Each space, <br />enclosed by walls or ceiling height partitions, shall tw provided <br />with lighting controls located within that space. The lighting <br />controls, whether one or more shal be capable of turning off <br />all lights within the space. The controls shah be readily <br />accessible, at the point of entry/exit, to personnel occupying or <br />using the space. <br />EXCEPTIONS: The following lighting controls may be <br />centralized in remote locations: <br />1. Lighting controls for spaces which must be used <br />as a whole. <br />2. Automatic controls. <br />3. Controls requiring trained operator s. <br />4. Controls for safety hazards and security. <br />1513.2 Area Controls: The maximum lighting power that may <br />be controlled from a single switch or automatic control shall not <br />exceed that which is provided by a twenty ampere circuit <br />loaded to not more than eighty percent. A master control may <br />be installed provided tie individual switches retain their <br />capability to function Independently. Circuit breakers may not <br />be used as the sole means of switching. <br />EXCEPTIONS: <br />1. Industrial or manufacturing process areas, as <br />may be required for production. <br />2. Areas less than five percent of footprint for <br />footprints over 100,000 square feet. <br />1613.3 Daylight Zone Control: All daylghted zones, AS <br />defined in Chapter 2, both under ororhesd glazing and <br />adjacent to vertical glazing. shall be provided with Individual <br />controls, or daylight or occupant -sensing automatic controls, <br />which control the lights independent of general area lighting. <br />Contiguous daylight zones adjacent to vertical glazing are <br />allowed to be controlled by a single controlling device provided <br />that they do not include zones facing more than two adjacent <br />care -real orientations (I A. north, east south, west). Daylight <br />zones under overhead glazing more than 15 feet from the <br />perimeter shish he controlled separately from daylight zones <br />adjacent to vertical glazing. <br />EXCEPTION: <br />Daylight spaces enclosed by walls or ceiling <br />height partitions and containing 2 or fewer light <br />fixtures are not required to have a separate switch for <br />general area fighting. <br />1513.4 Display, Exhibition, and Specialty Lighting <br />Controls: All display, exhibition, or specialty lighting shall be <br />controlled Independently of general area lighting. <br />1513.6 Automatic Shut -Off Controls, Exterior. Exterior <br />lighting not Intended for 24-hour continuous use shall be <br />automatically switched by timer, photocell, or a combination of <br />timer and photocell. Automatic time switches must also have <br />program back- p capabilities, which prevent the loss of <br />program and time Settings for at least 10 tours, if power is <br />Interrupted_ <br />1513.6 Automatic Shut -Off Controls, Interior: Office <br />buildings greater than 5,000 sqit and all school classrooms <br />shall be equipped with separate automatic controls to shut off <br />the tighfirg during unoccupied hours. Automatic controls may <br />be an occupancy sensor. time stitch, of other device capable <br />of au'omatically shutting off lighting. <br />EXCEPTIONS: <br />1. Areas that must be continuously dlurninated, or <br />illuminated in a manner requiring manual <br />operation of the lighting. <br />2. Emergency Ightirrh systems. <br />3. Switching for industrial or manufacturing process <br />facilities as may be required for production. <br />1513.6.1 Occupancy Sensors: Occupancy sensors shall be <br />capable of automatically tuning off all the lights in an area, no <br />more than 30 minutes after the area has been vacated. <br />1513.6.2 Automatic Time Switches: Automatic time switches <br />shell have a minimum 7 day clock and be capable of being set <br />for 7 different day types per week and incorporate an automatic <br />holiday-shutvlr feature, which turns off all bads for at least <br />24 hours and then resumes normally scheduled Operations. <br />Automatic time switches shall also have program back-up <br />capabilities, which prevent the loss of program and time <br />settings for at least 10 hours, if power is interrupted. <br />Automatic time swllches shall incorporate an over -ride <br />switching device which: <br />a) is readily accessible: <br />b) is located so Mat a person using the device can see the <br />lights of the areas controlled by the switch, or so Mat the <br />area being illuminated is annunciated: and <br />c) is manually operated. <br />d) allows the lighting to remain on for no more than two hours <br />when an over -ride is initialed: and <br />e) controls an area not exceeding 5,000 square feet Or 5 <br />percent of footprint for footprints over 100.000 square feet, <br />whichever Is greater. <br />1513.7 Commissioning Requirements: For lighting contiOK <br />which include daylight or occupant sensing automatic controls, <br />automatic shut-0ft controls, occupancy sensors, or automatic <br />time swltdes, the hghhng contras shall be tested to ensue <br />that control devices, components, equipment and systems are <br />calibrated, adjusted and operate in accordance with approved <br />plans and specifications. Sequences of operation shall be <br />functionally tested to ensure they operate in accordance with <br />approved plans and specifications. A complete report of test <br />procedures and results shall be prepared and filed with the <br />owner Drawing notes shall require commissioning in <br />accordance with this paragraph. <br />13/ <br />3 <br />
