M. Bravo Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 How can I manage the demand factor, diversity factor and load factor when it is calculating a load study for a MCC bus bar? EG. It have a bus bar with the following connected load: (only in this bar) Continuos Intermitent spare loads Motor1: 50HP x Motor2: 50HP x Motor3: 30hp x (30min each 1 hour)that is means=0.5 (of what demand or load factor) Motor4: 20hp x Load: transf. 25kVA x Taking 1hp=1kVA we have: loads continue: 95kVA loads intermitent: 30 kVA* 0.5= 15kVA loas spares: 50kVA*0.1=5kVA loads cont+ interm= 110kVA it is this load used to dimension the generator? loads cont + interm+spare= 115kVA is it this load used to dimension the bar rating? What load I have to used to dimension the CB protection of this bar? Thanks M.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
