Dera Mr. Ikram ;
The ” Deversity Fcator – Kd ” or the ” Simultaniety Factor – Ks ” are the same, and we apply this factor to ” Panels “ not to each load.
This factor means : if we have a panel with 10 different loads, certainly these loads don't cosume in the same time 100% of their powers, because some of them consume 80%, another 100%, other 65%, so, the percantage of the Diversity Fcator means the percentage of the loads that comsume in the same time 100% of their powers.
By experience, we use the following percentages :
– For ” 3 ” Loads or Outgoing : 0.90
– For ” 5 ” Loads or Outgoing : 0.80
– For ” 9 ” Loads or Ourgoing : 0.70
– For ” 10 or more ” loads or Outgoing : 0.60
Regards.
if you want to know more,i have to suggest to see IEE site guide
Tables of typical allowances for diversity (Table. 1B)
Dear ikram shehzad,
this for sure will help
