Title 24 (T24)
Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards are designed to reduce energy consumption by mandating that commercial building owners and homeowners use only high-efficacy lamps in both indoor and outdoor fixtures installed during new construction or remodels. The legislation has evolved recently to outline several new requirements for these fixtures, including:
• Lightsourcesmustoffer“lowflickeroperation”(anLEDmustflickerlessthan30%atfrequencies below 200 Hz).
• LEDlampsandluminairesmustprovideanR9ofatleast50.
• TheColorRenderingIndexmustbeequaltoorgreaterthan90,assuringitproducesstrong, vibrant reds.
California is paving the way to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, and many additional municipalities nationwide have adopted these regulations as well. All Kichler fixtures featuring the T24 logo meet the latest legislation requirements, including those implemented in January 2017 with JA8.
