How to calculate the lighting load & power load requirement
by knowing area of building/room. Is there any thumb rule?

Answer Posted / ayyappan

lighting load is nothing but a load without motor principle,except fan.at the same time power load is the load all motor and induction load..eg:pump motor, grinder,washingmachine, ac etc
for area we calculate the lighting load by illumination in candela.it also depens glare ,beam angle.
for power load its depends on the no of phase,for area means its like machine occupied by the area.
