HVACTemplate:Zone:IdealLoadsAirSystem vs ZoneHVAC:IdealLoadsAirSystem meter options [closed]

Hi!

I'm using EnergyPlus v23.2.0 to model a building and determine the amount of energy needed when I apply different natural ventilation strategies. To mesure the theorically energy demand that I must to provide to get a confort temperature I'm using the HVACTemplate:Zone:IdealLoadsAirSystem.

In the documentation I found that this template is preprocessed and transformed into a ZoneHVAC:IdealLoadsAirSystem object. But here I have a question. The documentation also indicate that the meters for the Template are DistrictHeating and DistrictCooling (InputOutputReference v23.2.0 p. 2530), and for the ZoneHVAC are DistrictHeatingWater and DistrictCooling (InputOutputReference v23.2.0 p.1269). So, which meter I must to use to calculate the energy demand? Heating:DistrictHeatingWater and Cooling:DistrictCooling or Heating:DistrictHeating and Cooling:DistrictCooling. It is a bugg in the documentation or there are a difference betwen this metrics?

Thanks!
