FAQ

Common questions

Why are tenant demand meters shown?

They make separate tenant energy measurement visible in the distribution topology.

Are tenant meters always installed after the main bus?

The required metering arrangement depends on the utility, lease structure, and local code.

Why is HVAC separate from tenant loads?

Central plant equipment is commonly a shared landlord service rather than a tenant branch.
