Credit 3: Additional Commissioning: 1 Point
Verify and ensure that fundamental building elements are designed, installed, and calibrated to operate as intended.
This credit requires the use of an independent commissioning authority (3rd party) to review the design prior to the
c
onstruction documents (CD) phase of design, review CD’s, implement commissioning strategies, and train building operators
in system use.
Leviton Lighting Management Systems group can support these activities with documentation of system design, product
literature, and field start-up and training.
Credit 5: Measurement and Verification: 1 Point
Provide for the ongoing accountability and optimization of building energy and water consumption performance over time.
This credit requires implementation of a plan to verify building performance over time. Once again, lighting is a key
component of this credit.
Leviton Light Logger is a valuable tool to meet this credit. When used with the Dollars and Sensor program, it will provide
documentation of occupancy use for reporting. Soon to come is the “Tenant Billing” feature for the Z-MAX product. This will
provide reporting on energy, occupancy and demand use for equipment controlled by the Z-MAX system.
Section MR: Materials & Resources
Credit 5.1: Regional Materials: 20% Manufactured Regionally: 1 Point
Increase demand for building materials and products that are extracted and manufactured within the region, thereby
supporting the regional economy and reducing the environmental impacts resulting from transportation.
Lighting has a minor role in this credit, but may prove helpful in some circumstances.
Leviton’s regional locations may afford credit for products supplied within the required distance.
Section EQ: Indoor Environmental Quality
Credit 6.1: Controllability of Systems: Perimeter Spaces: 1 Point
Provide a high level of thermal, ventilation, and lighting systems control by individual occupants or specific groups in multi-
occupant spaces (i.e. classrooms or conference rooms) to promote the productivity, comfort and well-being of building
occupants.
Increasing personal control of lighting in commercial spaces can lead to higher levels of personal satisfaction and productivity
while saving more energy. Provide at least one lighting control zone per 200 square feet for all regularly occupied areas within
1
5 feet of perimeter walls. While it is not required for this credit, the strong preference for control should be dimming rather
than switching.
Leviton’s Z-MA
X, EZ-MAX, miniZ, Centura, Timers, and Occupancy Sensors provide the appropriate zoning capabilities to meet
this credit.
