OpenStudio Results - Exterior Lighting correct?

Hi,

I am using the Exterior Equipment in the Facility Tab to specify exterior lighting at 6,698 W. It is running 12 hours a day 365 days a year so uses approximately 2,444.8 kWh/month or 29,337.2 kWh/y. Yet, OpenStudio Results Exterior Lighting is reporting this as 29.34 kWh (presumably per year - there really should be an "Annual" annotation if that is so). Am I misinterpreting this number - is it referring to some period other than a year?

Thanks,

Matt
