In an occupied space, I have a 100 fluorescent luminaires. All luminaires are 277V single-phase 2’ x 2’ 2-bulb units, with a ballast dedicated to each bulb. The ballast and bulb combination use a combined 30 watts (25 for the lamp and 5 wasted as heat by the ballast) of power during operation.
a. In my space, 20% of my lights are designated as exit lighting. An exit luminaire keeps both bulbs on 100% of the time to provide a minimum level of illumination to move around the building. How much power am I using a year to keep these luminaires on?
