Understanding Time of Use Groups

Time of Use (TOU) Groups are groups of TOUs that are associated to TOU templates that limit the TOUs available for use in a TOU schedule. These TOUs will be available as the default, holiday, and schedule TOUs within the template.

Each TOU in the group is given a priority. The priority is important in a few ways:

• The TOU Overlay 360 Degree zone uses these priorities to decide which TOUs will be rendered as a unique shade and which will fall into a category of "other" when the maximum number of distinct TOUs to graph has been reached.
• These priorities are available for use in customized logic.
