AI summary CRA conducted annual/quarterly surveys with ENSC participants and builders, and intercept surveys with CFL/LED buyers at retail stores to gather data on energy efficiency program outcomes and consumer behavior.

Table 16: Revised Unitary Savings for Dimmer Switches with Motion Sensors Parameter Value Fixture Wattage (2 × 60 W) = 120 W Dimmed Wattage 80% × 120 W = 96 W Old Operating Time 2.7 h/day New Operating Time – with sensor 1.23 h/day Annual...

AI summary This section discusses the revised unitary savings for dimmer switches with motion sensors, including fixture wattage, dimmed wattage, operating time, and annual energy savings. It is part of a broader discussion on outdoor motion sensors.

Hours of Operation As mentioned in the CFL section, a higher hours of operation value was used for LED lamps that were specifically installed in locations where they would be on most of the time. Consequently, hours of operation for all LE...

AI summary The document discusses the hours of operation for LED lamps, noting that most LEDs are set to 24 hours per day except for LED chandeliers, which remain at 16 hours as per the 2013 evaluation. This affects unitary savings values used in the tracking sheet.

- > For retail stores, restaurants, and malls: 12 hours per day from Monday to Saturday and 6 hours per day on Sunday - > For hotel hallways: 24 hours per day, 7 days per week This value of 12.8 hours does not apply to the LED exit sign, w...

AI summary The document specifies lighting operation hours for different facilities, noting that LED exit signs operate 24/7, while retail stores, restaurants, malls, and hotel hallways have varying operational hours.

Installation Rate As there were no on-site visits for the LED Blitz pilot, the installation rate is assumed to be 100 percent for all the lighting and non-lighting products.

AI summary The installation rate for the LED Blitz pilot is assumed to be 100 percent for all lighting and non-lighting products due to the absence of on-site visits.

This Appendix summarizes all the recommendations made by the Evaluator throughout this report as well as the sections from which the recommendations originated. Sections Recommendations 6 Use ballast efficacy factor when available to evalu...

AI summary The appendix outlines recommendations for evaluating the system wattage of fluorescent and LED linear tube lighting systems, emphasizing the use of the ballast efficacy factor for accuracy. If unavailable, literature-based data or calculations using ballast factor and lamp wattage are suggested, particularly for LED tubes where database information may be limited.
