Important notes
  • Check sensor field of view, mounting height, partitions, nuisance switching, manual overrides, emergency lighting, commissioning, and user acceptance.
  • Electrical work, life-safety interactions, NCC assumptions, and Australian compliance implications need qualified review; this planner makes no automatic compliance claim.

Formulas

  • \(\displaystyle h_c = h_o + (h_e-h_o)(1-r) + t/60\)
  • \(\displaystyle S = P(h_e-h_c)d/1000\)
  • Sensor savings depend on actual occupancy, coverage, timeout, commissioning, and overrides.

Estimate occupancy sensor controlled hours, annual kWh savings, cost savings, and coverage review flags.

Occupancy Sensor Retrofit Savings Planner is a planning aid. Keep the target source, product data, measurement method, and project assumptions with the result. Confirm compliance, installation, certification, and safety decisions with the responsible professional.
