Seeing UGR Clearly: A Study on Background and Application Use of UGR
11:30 AM - 12:30 PM Sat
Harold has been a product design and applications engineer in the energy efficiency, lighting and building automation industry for over 30 years. He is a specialist in energy efficiency code compliance, serving on the ASHRAE/IES 90.1 standard's lighting subcommittee, is chair of NEMA�s Codes and Standards Review Committee, and is a voting member on the IECC Power Lighting and Renewable subcommittee. A Professional Engineer and WELL-AP, he manages and contributes to Legrand's codes and standards development work with NEMA, IES, ANSI C137 and within other lighting and efficiency industry organizations.
Harold obtained his bachelors in electrical engineering from Brigham Young University and spent his first 10 years as the principal and engineering lead for Tomstar Controls (acquired by Wattstopper/Legrand), deploying efficient lighting and building solutions on thousands of projects. He pioneered early concepts of distributed networked lighting control and later lead the development of Wattstopper's digital lighting management products. Transitioning from the commercial building sector for a stint, he managed the engineering and operations for one of Legrand's residentially focused lighting control and automation businesses before taking his current role managing codes, standards and industry activities on behalf of Legrand's Building Control Division and five lighting fixture brands. This has further broadened his technical expertise on lighting subjects significant to sound and efficient lighting design, control and application practice.
