Title 24 lighting acceptance testing

What we test on site

California Title 24, Part 6 requires field verification that installed lighting controls operate correctly before a nonresidential project can receive final approval. As a NLCAA-certified Acceptance Test Technician, I perform on-site Title 24 acceptance testing per Reference Nonresidential Appendix NA7.6 procedures.

Title 24 paperwork you get

Every project includes the compliance documentation your inspector and the CEC require:

• NRCA acceptance certificates — completed, signed PDF copies for your records and city submittal
• NRCI install form coordination — prepared when required; installing contractor signs as responsible person
• Electronic submission to the CEC — via NLCAA acceptance testing software with provider-branded forms
• San Francisco Final Compliance Letter — when required by DBI for Certificate of Occupancy

Third-party Title 24 testing

Mesa Construction, Inc. is registered as a third-party Acceptance Test Employer (ATE #ATE-2608-00005). Electrical contractors hire us for independent verification — no conflict with the installing contractor's role. You get clean NRCA sign-off from a certified ATT who shows up, tests, and delivers forms fast.

Who this is for

• Commercial tenant improvements (TI)
• Retail, restaurant, and office build-outs
• Warehouses and industrial facilities
• New construction with nonresidential lighting controls
• Alterations where lighting controls are added (more than 20 luminaires)

We serve contractors across the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento. See city-specific info for San Francisco, Oakland, and San Jose.

What's not included

We specialize in Title 24 lighting controls acceptance testing only — not mechanical/HVAC acceptance testing, not general energy consulting, and not lighting installation or programming corrections beyond identifying what needs to be fixed for re-test.
