Example 7.8.
A power supply is having the following loads :
~
Maximum Diversity Dema·nd
Type of demand of factor
load group
(kW)
Domestic 15,000 1.25 0.7
Commercial 25,000 1.2 0.9
Industrial 50,000 1.3 0.98
If the overall system diversity factor is 1.5, determine
(a) the maximum demand and
(b) connected load of each type.
Solution. (a) The sum of maximum demands of
three types of loads
= 15000 + 25000 + 50000 =90000 kW
Since the system diversity factor is 1.5
:. Maximum den1and on supply svstem
90000 •
- =60000 kW
1.5
_ (b) Each type of load has its own diversity factor
an1ong its consumers. ·
Maximum domestic load demand
=Max. domestic demandx diversity factor
=15000 x 1.25 = 1875,0 kW
18750
:. Connected domestic load= =26785.7 kW
