Hello,

Long time ago, I posted an unsanswered question. Since the question still remain, I will try to explain it more clearly.

I have a hard time to interpret what a "local control" means with 90.1-2013 - section 9.4.1.1(a):

"There shall be one or more manual lighting controls in the space that controls all of the lighting in the space. (...)"

Each space have a lot of others control requirement like Restricted to partial automatic ON, Bilevel, Automatic partial off,etc.
What does the local manual lighting controls need to do with all the lighting ? Do they need to complement the other control, or to bypass them with a forthright 100% ON / 0% OFF ?

Many thanks
