Electrical load calculation determines service size, feeder, and branch circuit requirements. Under-sizing risks overheating; over-sizing wastes cost.
단계별 가이드
- 1Sum connected loads and apply demand factors per code
- 2Typical demand factors: lighting 100%, HVAC 100%, convenience outlets 50-100%
- 3Size service for total demand + margin for future growth
풀어진 예시
입력
Lighting 50 kW, HVAC 150 kW, outlets 30 kW, motors 100 kW
결과
Total demand ≈ 270 kW + 25% margin = 338 kW service
Code-compliant sizing
피해야 할 일반적인 실수
- ✕Using connected load without demand factors
- ✕Neglecting motor inrush current effects
자주 묻는 질문
Why use demand factors?
Not all loads run simultaneously; factors reflect realistic concurrent usage patterns.
Should future growth be included?
Yes, typically 20-25% margin allows expansion without service upgrade.
