About this file

This is Addendum #2 to a federal construction contract specification for lighting controls at the Dayton VA Medical Center (DVAMC), issued February 20, 2026. The addendum modifies Section 26 09 23 (Lighting Controls) of the specification for Project 552-22-201, Renovate Catholic Chapel, located at 4100 W. Third Street, Dayton, Ohio 45428. The revision adds a Stand Alone relay panel type to Section 2.5 (Lighting Control System), requiring contractors to include this control system configuration in their lighting control implementation.

The specification requires contractors to furnish and install a comprehensive lighting control system including outdoor photoelectric switches (solid-state, SPST dry contacts rated 1800 VA tungsten or 1000 VA inductive), ceiling-mounted photoelectric switches, indoor occupancy sensors (wall or ceiling-mounted with adjustable 1-15 minute time delay), indoor vacancy sensor switches (wall-mounted, manual-on with automatic off), and a stand-alone lighting relay panel control system. The relay panel system must include a programmable, solid-state panel controller complying with UL 508, mechanically held single-pole relays rated 20A at 125/277 volts, steel cabinet with hinged locking door, system power supply with transformer and full-wave rectifier, and control devices including ultrasonic/IR/dual-technology occupancy sensors, photocells, switches, and timers. Contractors must submit shop drawings with material details, wiring schematics, and installation details; complete maintenance and operating manuals two weeks prior to final inspection; and provide contractor certification of proper installation and testing. The contract requires NEC-compliant installation per manufacturer recommendations with acceptance testing including operating tests, dimming range verification, and occupancy sensor performance validation, with final demonstration in service before the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).
