The system is password protected to prevent any changes to the program functions by unauthorized persons. No means is available at the warehouse level to alter- energy conservation functions such as HVAC and Demand Limiting. Controlled functions include operation of interior and exterior lighting according to daily operating hours. Lights are provided in stages to allow only those needed for specific stocking requirements prior to store opening for customers. Included with the lighting functions are other electrical usage items not necessary during non -occupied hours: All water heaters are electric and controlled by time Electrical display racks are controlled by time Outdoor building signs are controlled by time In addition, the higher usage items such as HVAC units are controlled by pre -determined temperature settings not adjustable by the warehouse. Night set -back and optimum start/stop times are re -calculated daily by the computer to minimize usage according to weather condtions. Demand Limiting assures pre-set electrical usage by shutting off HVAC units, refrigeration, etc. to avoid high peak usage.
