Recently I was going through this question from the Exam prep. edition of mike holt and I wanted to know whether parking lights and outside light should be all together added to general lighting since external to the building when performing this service load calculation of the 15,000 sqft bank. And should there be consideration for the lighting demand factor separate besides the demand of Tbl. 220.12.
