what is Diversity factor in electrical installations

Answer Posted / noel

Diversity factor is the ratio of the sum of the individual
maximum demands of the various subdivisions of a system,
or part of a system, to the maximum demand of the
whole system, or part of the system, under consideration.
Diversity factor is usually more than one.

A 400 V, 50 Hz, Δ connected synchronous generator has a field reactance of 0.1 Ω and armature resistance of 0.015 Ω. At full load, the machine supplies 1200 A at 0.8 pf lagging. Under full-load conditions, the friction and windage losses are 40 KW and the core losses are 30 KW. What is the machine’s overall efficiency? Ignore any field circuit losses.
