Chiller and Boiler Curves Conversion SI to IP

Quick question- can you use the same exact curve coefficients in EnergyPlus as in eQuest? I suspect the answer is no, and the coefficients are dependent on the unit system, but I wanted to be sure.

I'm building a Title 24 model in eQuest, and need to use the same curves as the CBECC-Com model produces. I inspected the IDF file and used those curves but I think I'm misusing this information. Can someone confirm?

Here is the snapshot from Title 24 Appendix 5.7:
