Determine which Systems and Codes are required:
* _IBC/IECC 2021 or later:_ all fixtures 0-10V dimmable.
## PDI Lighting Control Configurations
### Stand Alone
0-10V dim -- "LV cable" is 2 conductor
Takeoff rough-in for switches and occupancy sensors
* **Branch Length** = length of room
Takeoff the lighting control relay (DLM)
Takeoff an additional controller if receptacles are controlled
Takeoff homeruns to the DLM (one per controlled circuit)
* Note: Not necessarily per room, several rooms may share a lighting circuit.
### Networked
#### Devices
##### Room Controllers
No room controllers are necessary,
lighting zones are switched from a central lighting control panel (LCP)
##### Switches and Sensors
Takeoff rough-in for switches and occupancy sensors
??
(only if time based; length based on closeness to sw/occ sensor)
??
#### Homeruns
Takeoff 1 circuit homerun per lighting zone.
### Wattstopper
PDI default configuration
Takeoff (1) DLM controller for the fixtures
and (1) Plug controller for the receptacle
* If room has both dimmable fixtures and the controlled receptacle,
only (1) DLM controller and (1) Plug controller
* Use MC to cover room if drop
* Use EMT if exposed or MC not permitted
Takeoff normal power to the controlled load
* Add LV cable to fixture branch
* Use 12/3 for receptacles
Takeoff rough-in for both the occ sensors and the LV switch
* Free air if possible
* **Length** = length of room
Cat cabling from the controllers on is likely provided by systems
* Confirm with chief or quote language
#### Corridor Occupancy Sensors
If occupancy sensors are shown in the corridors:
Takeoff homerun back to the electric room
Takeoff (1) DLM controller for each electric room
* Run free air down corridor
Takeoff rough-in for each occupancy sensor shown.
#### Network Bridge
Check systems quote to determine if network bridges are needed.
Takeoff (1) back box for every ==group of rooms you want together==
??
If not showing, put one in every room with a controller
??
#### Homeruns
Need a HR into the room for the controllers
* Can link multiple controllers (aka rooms) together if you have the same circuit
* Go back to closest electric room
