S'. hough other types such as screw sockets specifically rated for
in discharge lamps (like metal halide lamps) may also be eligible for
use. Luminaires with modular components that allow conversion
eween screw=based and pin -based sockets without changing the luminaire
housing or wiring shall not be considered high efficacy luminaires. These
requirements prevent low efficacy lamps being retrofitted in high efficacy
luminaires. Also, compact fluorescent luminaires with permanently installed
ballasts that are capable of operating a range of lamp wattages, the highest
operating -input wattage -of the rated lamp/ballast combination must be use for
determining the luminaire wattage.
There are two qualifying requirements for a high efficacy luminaire: that -the
lumens per watt for the lamp be above a specified threshold and thtil onic
ballasts be used in certain applications.
Electronic Ballasts O
Additionally, fluo " t i apo r rating of 13 W or more shall have
ars-et�ctro ' Ila a e s a lam - ata frequency of 20 kHz or more. All
mmon avai le tro c ballasts meet this requirement. Outdoor
iii iris sire ith h intensity discharge (HID) lamps (like metal halide or high -
ss s ium) containing hardwired electromagnetic HID ballasts with HID
edium base sockets and lamps meeting the minimum efficacy
requirements in Table 6-1 are considered high efficacy.
At the present time, pin based compact fluorescent lamps that are operated with
electronic ballasts typically have four -pin lamp holders. Pin -based compact
fluorescent lamps with two -pin lamp holders typically will indicate that the ballast
is magnetic. However, there are new compact fluorescent lamp holders being
considered by the lighting industry.

Lumens per Watt

The lumen is the unit of visible light. To be rated as high efficacy, a lamp must
produce a certain number of lumens for each watt of electrical power it
consumes. Efficacy is therefore measured in lumens per watt.
Almost all fluorescent lamps equipped with electronic ballasts qualify as high
efficacy light sources; incandescent lamps (��clud' any screw-in incandescent
lamps, like regular'A' or reflector lamps or glia lagan lamps, or low voltage

Residential Manual -On Occupant Sensors.
In bathrooms, garages, laundry rooms, and utility rooms, manual -on / automatic -
off. occupant sensors are allowed as an alternate compliance option to high
efficacy lighting. Manual -on / automatic -off occupant sensors automatically turn
lights off if an occupant forgets to turn them off when a room is unoccupied.
Additionally, these sensors should readily ovi occupant with the option
of tuming the lights off manu �l`ly upon ving . This option should be
available without having to rernove s 'tchpla ear ny other modifications to
the sensor. The ma I , fe urcri 'dal because it provides the occupants
with the flexibility tro he i ht" environment to their satisfaction, and

a sors must be "manual -on", i.e., the sensors must not have the
ili o�eent-on
utomatically and must not have a setting that can
leave thposition. If a manual -on occupant sensor has
an on/off switch to put the sensor into a temporary programming mode, the
on/off programming switch must automatically switch off (for example, within 15
minutes) in the event the end user or installer leaves it in the programming
mode.
Some models of occupant sensors have the capability to be changed by the
occupant to "automatic -on" by removing the switchplate or touchplate and
changing switch settings. These occupant sensors are acceptable as long as
the mechanism to switch settings is not visible to the occupant, cannot e I
accessed without the removal of a switchplate or touchplate, ap�i"s lor�ey
are delivered to the building site and installed with Zthe" uaf sar-s tt�k_%

Another solution would be to install an occupant sensor that does not have

The sensors that have a minimum load requirement are typically the ones that
are designed to operate without a'groundwire in the switch box which were
common wiring scheme in the older residential units. Commercial grade
sensors and all other sensors that are designed to take advantage of the
groundwire in the switch box typically do not have a minimum load requirement
and are the preferred choice to meet the rCTWire is of the Standards.
If you are trying to control a loting fi tur fro _ i ferent switches you will

mers.
It is important to correctly match the dimmer with the type of lighting load that is
being dimmed. Failure to correctly match the dimmer with the electrical lighting
load may result in early equipment failure, including the dimmer, transformer,
ballast, or lamp.
Dimmer manufacturers typically offer three basic types of incandescent
dimmers: Line voltage (120 volt), low -voltage for use with a magnetic
transformer, and low -voltage for use with an electronic transformer. Lis olt e
incandescent lamps, including tungsten -halogen lamp can ea�sely b t� d

dimmers. Tungsten -halogen lamps can be dimm :th�nl�eo`-Mal

efficac uorescent lamps with electronic ballasts do not require dimmers to
e tandards, dimmers are permitted to be used with fluorescent lighting
systems. Most fluorescent lamps cannot be property dimmed with the same
simple wallbox devices typically used for dimming incandescent lamps. A
special control and dimming ballast must be used. Some types of screw-in
compact fluorescent lamps with integral ballasts can be dimmed by simple
controls. However, many screw-in compact fluorescent lamps cannot be
dimmed at all.

Kitchen Section 150(k)2
The Standards define a residential kitchen to be "a room or area used for food storage and
preparation and washing dishes including associated counter tops and cabinets, refrigerator,
stove, oven, and floor areas."
The permanently installed lighting should provide sufficient lighting levels for basic kitchen tasks
without.the need for augmenting with portable (plug-in) lighting. The IESNA guidelines
recommend at least 30 footcandles be provided in kitchens.
The Standards require that at least half the lighting watts in a kitchen must. be consumed by high
efficacy luminaries.
Non -high efficacy luminaires must be switched on a separate circuit from the high efficacy
luminaires.
Bathrooms, Garages, Laundry Rooms and Utility Rooms Section 150(k)3
Lighting in bathrooms, garages, laundry rooms and/or utility rooms must be high efficacy, or must
be controlled by a manual -on occupancy sensor.
A bathroom is defined as a room containing a shower, tub, toilet or a sink that is used for personal
hygiene.
More than one circuit of luminaires may be attached to the same manual -on occupant sensor.
Other Rooms Section 150(k)4
Permanently installed lighting in other rooms must be high efficacy, or a manual -on occupant
_ _sensor_or_a_dimmer-must control -it.-----_
"Other rooms" including hallways, dining rooms, family rooms and bedrooms.
The lighting in closets less than 70 square feet is exempt from this requirement.
