Guidelines to Practice Energy


Efficiency in CKE Design
1.0 Introduction
Energy Efficiency (EE) in the JKR context means the efficient utilization of energy
during the operational lifespan of a building here the comfort of its occupants is
not compromised nor sacrificed! "nitially EE can be achie#ed by isely ta$ing
#arious energy sa#ing measures during the design stage of the building! "n
pro%ects designed by JKR& energy in buildings is associated mainly ith electricity!
'ften this is mista$enly ta$en to imply that EE is the sole responsibility of
electrical engineers! "n reality& anything that leads to the e#entual end(use of
electricity is related to EE in buildings!
2.0 Integrated Design Approach
"ntegrated building design is a process of design in hich multiple disciplines and
seemingly unrelated aspects of design are integrated in a manner that permits
synergistic benefits to be realized! )he goal is to achie#e high performance and
multiple benefits at a loer cost than the total for all the components combined!
)his process often includes integrating green design strategies into con#entional
design criteria for building form& function& performance and cost!
)o achie#e EE in JKR constructed buildings& it can be carried out by applying both
passi#e and acti#e design strategies!
*assi#e design strategies includes adopting design measures such as building
orientation and shape& site planning& selection of building en#elope all and roof
materials ith lo thermal mass conducti#ity& building shading design& indo
type and design& type of glazing& daylight har#esting strategy& using natural
#entilation and good landscaping design!
+hile acti#e design strategies refers to selecting energy efficiency e,uipment&
utilities systems& control system and strategy that result in direct reduction in the
building energy running costs! )his includes using high efficiency -./C system&
such as using .ariable /ir .olume (./.) or chilled beam air condition
technologies0 using high efficiency motors& pumps and fans& .ariable 1peed
2ri#ers (.12s) ith motor dri#ing pumps and fans ith #ariable loads0 use of high
efficient lighting system and occupancy sensor and use of effecti#e control system
such as 3uilding /utomation 1ystem (3/1)!
"n Caangan Ke%uruteraan Ele$tri$ e are focused on acti#e design strategy one
of hich is includes Electric 4ighting 2esign! )his ill be focused in this guideline!

3.1.2 Electronic $allast for %luorescent ighting
/lthough electronic ballast sa#es substantial amount of energy& it is not idely
used to replace the relati#ely energy(inefficient standard electromagnetic ballast
because of its higher cost
Electronic ballast gi#es significant energy sa#ings ith fluorescent lighting&
typically reducing poer consumption by around 69:! Electronic ballast are
designed to last 17 to 19 years lifetime ith long burning times and lo sitching
fre,uencies! )hey are more compact and ;7: lighter eight than electromagnetic
ballasts!

)hese to attributes must be considered separately!
Colour /ppearance
)he #ariation in the amount of colours ithin a light mixture affects the
appearance of the light in terms of its relati#e GarmnessB or GcoolnessB! )o
describe this GarmnessB and GcoolnessB of the colour of the light sources& the term
Gcolour temperatureB is used!
Colour )emperature or Correlated Colour )emperature (CC)) due to its
theoretical basis in the study of Gblac$ bodyB radiation should apply only to source
ith a continuous spectrum (such as incandescent lamps and natural light)!
-oe#er& for light sources ith non continuous spectral distribution (such as
fluorescent lamps here the spectrum consists of pea$s of energy)& CC) is used
mainly on an empirical sense (i!e! in a #ery Gnear approximateB sense)!
Colour Rendering
/ more common method of characterizing light sources by its colour is the Colour
Rendering "ndex (CR")! )he CR" compares the spectral energy content of a light
source to that of a standard reference source ith full spectrum! )he CR" #alue is
the numerical #alue and is 177 for full(spectrum natural hite(light! "ncandescent
lights are considered nearly hite and ha#e CR" close to 177! =ost lights ha#e
CR" typically in the range of 67 C 87!
)he CR" model is not a perfect model and should only be used to compare light
source ith the same colour temperature! 8or example& (about) ;777K daylight
fluorescent and clear mercury has CR" of D; and 66 respecti#ely! )he daylight
fluorescent ill therefore render colours better than clear mercury! )he difference
beteen a @577K tungsten halogen ith CR" >> and an ordinary 6877K
incandescent ith CR" >6 can usually also be differentiated by most obser#ers!
2espite the small difference in CR" #alues& the tungsten halogen ill render
colours more #i#idly compared to the ordinary incandescent! Colour rendering is
important especially in the case of (building) faHade and monument building!
@!6!5 2aylight
2aylight may pro#ide all or part of the lighting for #isual tas$s! 2aylight may create
a specific modeling and luminance distribution due to its nearly horizontal flo
from side indos! 2aylight can also be pro#ided by roof lights and other
fenestration elements! /n automatic or manual sitching or dimming of the lamps
is re,uired during day time depending on the #isual acceptance limit!
@!6!9 Aeneral *rinciples of Efficient 4ighting *ractice

)he cost premium for -E= is about 97 to 197 percent abo#e the cost of an
a#erage motor! /n -E= comes ith higher capital cost but there ill be a
significant amount of energy sa#ings during its lifespan! )he =alaysian

Exemption on import duty and sales tax& and
"n#estment tax alloance for energy efficient e,uipment
'n a#erage& the initial purchase cost of a motor only ma$es up 6: of the total
cost of onership! )he total electricity consumed to operate the motor o#er its
lifetime of 19 years ma$es up >D: of its total lost!
9!6!6 1a#ings in Running Cost
)he energy costs of a motor can be ,uite high o#er its lifetime! )he longer the
operating hours& the higher energy costs! )herefore& the lifetime cost calculations
should be performed to determine hether repair or replacement of an existing
standard motor ith a high efficient motor is more economical!
4hat to Consider 4hen "electing a 2otor
+hen changing to a smaller or high efficiency motor& it is important to consider the
folloing?
a) Running )emperature C -igh efficiency motors operate ithin the same Class 3
temperature limits as standard motors but ill not dissipate as much heat!
b) =aximum poer capability C 3efore changing to a smaller& loer rated motor& it is
important to chec$ that no load ill arise hich ill exceed this ne rating!
c) 1tarting tor,ue C )he starting tor,ue de#eloped in the ne& loer rated motor is li$ely
to be less than that of the existing motor! )hus& the starting duty in the application ill
ha#e to be chec$ed! "n cases& here the existing dri#e is a star I delta starter& a
change to direct on ( line ( start can be considered except hen starting tor,ue or
current must be limited! 1oft starter may be considered!

9.0 "uggested 2ethods for Energy Efficiency *y ;thers in >K(
9.1 $uilding Design "pecification
)he nature of the building en#ironment is an important factor in the design of the
lighting system! "f dar$ colours are used on alls& floors and ceilings& the result is
decreased light le#el as more light is absorbed by the dar$ surfaces! <sing light
colours instead can allo the remo#al of lamps in some cases!
9.2 2a0i&ise Daylighting . 'atural ighting )sed
"n this stage& the electrical designers should coordinate the electrical lighting
system ith the day lighting design proposed by the architect!
8or a place that is opened to the sunlight& there should enclose a lux sensor I light
control system to limit the glare entering the or$station to a#oid errors& fatigue
and accidents!
+here#er possible& use Pnatural lightingQ! Choose transparent roof material& hich
is easy to clean and ill not dar$en under the action of sunlight!
Clean the PreflectorQ portion of the fluorescent light fittings to maintain the
a#ailable light output
)as$ or area lighting may be used in some cases here only a small area of a
building needs higher lighting le#els! )herefore& an efficient use of lighting is
applicable0 hoe#er it must nor compromise the #isual aspects of a lighting
installation simply to reduce the energy consumption!
8actors such as glare or stray reflections should also be ta$en into account! )hey
can ha#e an impact on producti#ity as ell as on the energy efficiency of the
system!
9.3 Energy Efficient ;ffice E:uip&ent and Plug oads
Except in 2esign J 3uild contracts& the purchase of office e,uipments and other
plug loads are not normally included under JKR 67@ contracts! -oe#er e
should be proacti#e in ad#ising our clients that they should only purchase energy
efficient office e,uipment in line ith our integrated design approach!
'ffice e,uipment includes computers& printers& faxes& copying machines and other
e,uipment! Energy consumption of such e,uipment can represent large portion of
the building energy consumption! <sing readily a#ailable energy efficient and
reasonably priced office e,uipment such as computers ith poer management
functions& laptop& li,uid crystal display (4C2s) monitors& multifunction office
e,uipment and others can offer substantial reduction in office e,uipment energy
consumptions!
9.6 Energy Efficient A?AC "yste&s
-./C systems are intended to pro#ide ade,uate cooling comfort&
dehumidification and #entilation to occupied spaces at reasonable costs! 1ome of
effecti#e and energy efficient system include?

9.8 Co&prehensi#e Energy 2anage&ent "yste& /E2"1
-a#ing an effecti#e building monitoring& control& operation energy management
and reporting system can play a critical role in operating and maintaining energy
efficient building! )his system ill ensure that the building operates as efficiently
as possible hile meeting the occupantsB comfort and functional needs not only
during testing and commissioning but throughout the life of the building!
