Trane CDS has technical support at cdshelp at trane.com for licensees of
Trace700.
Misc consumables are entered in the Plants, under the Base Utility/Misc Accy
tab. Define a Base Utility type (parking lot lights) along with the hourly
demand kW and utilization schedule.
Exterior lighting is easily handled as a base load. Here's how:
1. Go to Create Plants
2. Click on the Base Utility/Misc. Accessory Tab
3. In the Base utility section of that window, choose parking lot
lighting from the drop down menu.
4. You can enter a description, specific the peak kW load, and
assign a schedule for the lighting. Use the Schedule Library to create a
unique schedule, as needed.
5. If you want to call it something other than "parking lot
lights", just create a new base utility in the library.
In the equipment report, the parking lot lighting will be a separate
line item so you can track the changes of various design options (or
design vs. minimum compliance).
