Daylight-Responsive (Daylight Harvesting) Lighting Control

Welcome to EE201: Daylight-Responsive Lighting Control, a Lighting Controls Association Education Express course.

Daylighting is a highly desirable feature of commercial buildings. It also enables daylight response or “harvesting” through the application of controls that reduce electric light contribution based on daylight levels. This course describes a simple process for design and application of devices and systems used to enact this energy management strategy.

By the end of this course, you will be able to: 1) identify areas of daylight availability available (or required by energy code) for daylight response control, 2) comply with applicable commercial building energy code requirements related to daylight-responsive lighting control, 3) functionally specify a daylight-responsive lighting control solution, and 4) ensure a daylight-responsive lighting control solution is delivered that satisfies users and owner expectations.

This course is registered and/or recognized by CALCTP, NLCAA, NCQLP (LC), NALMCO (CLCP), DLC, and the State of California. To gain education credit, after taking the course, click here to take a quiz (free but registration required, and you must at least scroll through the written course):
