Automatic Receptacle Control

[ronlow00]

MN recently adopted ASHRAE 90.1 2010. As many already know ASHRAE requires 50% of receptacles in most spaces to be controlled via room occupancy.

This is new to MN and myself. I was curious if anyone has control methods that seem to work well for the end users. Please share your experiences.

Thanks,

We put 50% more receptacles and label the ones controlled by occupancy control so nobody uses them.:happyyes:

Interesting technique. Cost goes up a bit but it is a solid work around if the controlled receptacles will create a nuisance. Thank you for sharing. Any one else have experiences/practices they can share?

Power pak are great , you can use wireless controls when Hardwire is not practical.

A good Idea is to stick to one product line to minimize stock for replacements and repair.
