Smart building owners are installing subcircuit monitoring infrastructure today that will satisfy not only current codes, but the 2024 IECC, Inflation Reduction Act compliance requirements, and the growing wave of Building Performance Standards.
C405.12 and C405.13, details the specific metering equipment needed for each nonelectrical energy type, walks through how subcircuit electrical monitoring and nonelectrical metering work together
The 2021 IECC introduced the most significant energy monitoring requirements in the code’s history. If your state has adopted it, your next commercial project over 25,000 square feet must include end-use submetering with granular, subcircuit-level data—and the clock is ticking.
