FOH-illumination at the Chefscargot consists of 120 ceiling-recessed "downspot" lamps each holding a standard incandescent filament light bulb rated a 60 watts. Miscellaneous decorative FOH-lighting and exterior lighting fixtures amount of a total of about 3,000 watts (3 kilowatts [kW]). FOH 4500 square ft, BOH 2500 square ft and total 7000 square ft BOH-illumination is provided by a total of 35 recessed "luminaries" each holding two (2) standard fluorescent lamps with associated components (starters, ballasts, etc..) At a total luminaire rating of 80 watt each, luminaire. You determine that, on average, the lighting systems are used for about 16 hours each day. Six and one half (62) hours/day all the lights (100%) are "on", while for ten (10) hours/day about on-half (50%) are "on". (Neglect "Exit"-lighting, emergency illumination, etc.) Although adjustment would be in order, assume, at this stage, that this illumination pattern results in an "average daily use" of about eleven (112) hours at equivalent full "connected lighting load" 1.1. At the rate of $.1050 average kilowatt-hour (kWh), your illumination- energy consumption and cost would amount to: 1.1.1. (2) kWh/typical day, i.e. 1.1.2. (2) KWh/year 149.5 KWH/day $15.69/typical day KWH/year $ /year. rent
