How to Calculate the maximum Demand required for a
connected load for a manufacturing Plant
Answer Posted / mior
First of all, you need to know your total connected load
(TCL). Then, you apply Diversity Factor at your TCL to get
the Maximum Demand (MD).
Example;
You have 1no. 36W Florescent Lighting and 1no. socket outlet
(250W). Your TCL will be (36W + 250W) = 286W.
In actual, the TCL may only contribute certain percentage
for your MD; that's why you need to apply Diversity Factor
(DF).
Common practice, light fitting will contribute 80% and
socket outlet giving 40% for your total MD.
Hence, your total MD will be = [(36W * 80%)+(250W*40%)
]= 128.8W
Therefore, your total MD to be declared for your Utility
Provider will be 128.8W.
