All outpatient buildings with interior equipment template > ComStock 2013 are failing with this error: [openstudio.model.ElectricEquipmentDefinition] Latent Fraction and Lost Fraction sum to 0.7 and you supplied a Radiant Fraction of 0.5 which would result in a sum greater than 1.0
I think I've tracked this down to the toilet space type, which for some reason has different radiant/latent/lost fractions than every other space type in outpatient buildings. When the building is first made, it gets the Pre-2013 values (frac latent = 0, frac radiant = 0.3, frac lost = 0.7). Then, when set_interior_equipment_template is run, it resets the values to the 2013 numbers (frac latent = 0, frac radiant = 0.5, frac lost = 0). I think it may be the order that the values are set causing the issue (i.e. it sets frac radiant = 0.5 before frac lost gets reset from 0.7 to 0, so it adds up to more than 1).
Two solutions here:
Investigate the order the fractions get set and possibly reorder. However, there could be other space types that would have the same issue if the order is changed. It would bea lot of work to go through every space type and figure this out.
Change the toilet space type fractions for post-2013 models to be the same as 2013. It seems weird that those fractions would change that drastically in 2013, and should have very little impact on the model anyways. This option seems a lot easier. It does look like "Janitor" and "Undeveloped" space types have the same values, but there is no electric equipment object in the model for Janitor space type, and Undeveloped space type is not used.
This change affects about 0.2% of the total stock, but 6% of outpatient buildings, which already have a high failure/timeout rate.
