Introductory
IECC or ASHRAE 90.1? What’s the difference? What are the lighting and control requirements? What version of the code do I need to comply to? What do the changes mean? So many questions! Leviton has answers. We simplify the code language and help make it easier to understand how to meet code compliance. With different states and municipalities adhering to different versions of IECC and ASHRAE 90.1, gaining an understanding of what’s required and how to adjust plans and systems to address the needs of each unique space can have a huge impact for all stakeholders involved.
Learning Objectives

- Compare lighting and control requirements for IECC and ASHRAE 90.1 and how they have changed in the most recent versions.
- Gain an understanding of the importance of lighting and control strategies.
