Utilization out of band.

A lighting circuit's on-fraction falls outside the expected band for its space — too high for a sensor-controlled area, or too low for a space that should be lit.

Trigger, action plan, and escalation criteria.

Related metric: utilization
Trigger: utilization_circuit outside [band_low, band_high] for the period
Value drivers: Energy savings Avoided truck rolls
Preconditions: Per-circuit on/off state; expected utilization band per space.
Human role: Reviews the out-of-band circuit and scopes the sensor or circuit check.
Action plan: (1) Confirm the circuit's on-fraction is outside the space's expected band for the period (not a one-off). (2) Too HIGH for a sensor-controlled space (parking, back of house) -> suspect a stuck occupancy sensor or miscalibrated detection; verify and recalibrate or replace. (3) Too LOW for a space that should be lit -> suspect an intermittently failing circuit, breaker trips, or clustering lamp/ballast failures; scope a maintenance check. (4) Where Schedule Compliance is clean but utilization is off, the issue is the equipment or sensor, not the schedule.
Escalation: (1) Repeated high utilization on a sensor circuit -> sensor replacement, not a schedule change. (2) Low utilization with rising lamp-out reports -> group relamp candidate.
Prevention: (1) Commission occupancy and photocell sensors against the space's expected band, and re-verify after any lighting retrofit.
