  2. the aggregate design illumination power load in (a) is the sum of the design illumination power loads in each of the spaces served; and
  3. where there are multiple lighting systems serving the same space, the design illumination power load for (b) is—
    1. the total illumination power load of all systems; or
    2. where a control system permits only one system to operate at a time based on the highest illumination power load; or determined by the formula—
      [H×T/2+P×(100−T/2]/100
  4. In the formula at (c)(ii)—
    1. H
      = the highest illumination power load; and
