Joe Karten Green Building Council of Australia Level 15, 179 Elizabeth St Sydney, NSW 2000

Dear Joe,

Following the final programming and commissioning of all lighting and blinds in the GBCA Sydney Office fitout at 179 Elizabeth Street, I confirm the following:

• Board Room default lighting levels are at a 320-400 LUX average – and lighting controls reset to these levels (or off) when video conferencing equipment is not in operation.

• The lighting has been grouped into the zones called out on the E001 Lighting plan produced by KLM and no zone exceeds 100m2.

• Switching for task based lighting at workstations is controlled via staff computers at the location. Switching for general lighting is controlled via the touch screen near reception. Switching for circulation lighting controlled via PIR and photo-electric sensors. Switching for meeting room lighting is controlled via PIR and through a manual override switch in each meeting room.

• Window blinds have been programmed for full automation with manual override function controllable from the touch screen near reception and from within the Board Room for Board Room window blinds.

The lighting has been fully programmed and commissioned in accordance with the GBCA Fitout Lighting Control document produced by Vision Design.

Feel free to contact me with any further queries you may have.

Kind regards, Joseph Gebaily Technical Leader NSW Commissioning
