Each month, our Lighting Controls Department Manager, Clint Conley, offers insight and advice about lighting controls. Clint, a licensed professional electrical engineer, brings over 15 years of construction, engineering, and lighting controls experience to the table. He takes the often confusing topic of lighting controls, and presents information in a straightforward and concise manner.
Previous Clint's Controls Corner articles have discussed the requirements of the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) versions 2015 and 2018. This article offers additional details about the specific requirements for lighting controls in hotel rooms, and how to implement controls to meet these requirements.
Section C405.2.4 of the IECC 2015 covers "hotel and motel sleeping units and guest suites" with the requirement that all lights and switched outlets must turn off within 20 minutes of all occupants leaving the space. In the 2018 version of the IECC, the requirement is the same, but further definition on what constitutes the room type has been added. Hotel and motel sleeping units have been changed to sleeping units. In the definitions of the 2018 IECC, there are dwelling units and sleeping units. Dwelling units have all permanent provisions for cooking and sanitation. Sleeping units have permanent provisions for cooking OR sanitation, but not both.
