What are blackout start and end dates in tutorial for?
Si Chen <sichen@...>
Hello,
I'm looking at the tutorial http://eemeter.openee.io/tutorial.html and would like to know what the role of blackout_start_date and blackout_end_date are?
They're set to 12/26/2016 and 1/4/2017. Is this a holiday period?
Why does the fitting of the model end on blackout_start_date
and the calculation of metered savings start on blackout_end_date?

# get meter data suitable for fitting a baseline model baseline_meter_data, warnings = eemeter.get_baseline_data( meter_data, end=blackout_start_date, max_days=365 )
reporting_meter_data, warnings = eemeter.get_reporting_data( meter_data, start=blackout_end_date, max_days=365 )
