Lighting Controls Association Publishes New Networked Lighting Control Course The Lighting Controls Association (LCA) has published EE302., Part 3: A Year with a Networked Lighting Control System, a new learning module in its popular Education Express online education program. Authored by C. Webster Marsh of HLB Lighting Design, this learning module was designed to help building owners/managers and electrical industry consultants visualize networked lighting controls as tools that can be used to improve operations while also saving energy. The learning module presents a fictional decisionmaker at a home, commercial building, multiple facilities, a large hotel, a hospital, and a city, identifying particular challenges. It then describes how an installed networked lighting control system provides opportunities and solutions with both energy and non-energy benefits throughout a typical year. Part 3 follows two learning modules authored by Steve Mesh, which describe networked lighting control technology, typical systems, and how to apply them to a project. Lighting Controls Association Updates Daylight Harvesting Course The Lighting Controls Association (LCA) has updated EE201: Daylight-Responsive Lighting Control, a popular course in its free, 24/7 Education Express program. Authored by Craig DiLouie with significant input from the National Electrical Manufacturers Associationâs (NEMA) Daylight Management Council and the LCA membership, the course describes a simple process for design and application of devices and systems used to enact daylight harvesting as an energy-code compliant strategy. The new and improved course simplifies and condenses the material while updating it to recognize current code requirements and technology. Lighting Controls Association Updates Dimming Course The Lighting Controls Association has updated EE103: Dimming Controls, Section 1 Part 2: Dimming Controls and Systems, a popular learning module in its free, 24/7 Education Express program. Authored by Steve Mesh and Craig DiLouie, this learning module describes equipment used for dimming in commercial buildings, starting with simple wallbox dimmers and working up to more complex systems. The new and improved course recognizes major changes in dimming systems resulting from technological advances including the widespread adoption of LED lighting. |
