Schedule of Load

This document provides a schedule of loads for an electrical installation including circuit details like load type, voltage rating, amperage, wire size, circuit breaker, and conduit size for each circuit. Computations are shown calculating load details for each circuit based on electrical principles and code requirements. The main feeder cable and overcurrent protection device are also sized based on the total continuous and non-continuous load calculations.

Schedule of Loads

Schedule of loads are just a summary of data to easily identify and facilitate the necessary
values and equipment rating to be used in any electrical installation. Any data given in the
schedule of loads were backed by calculation based on a well settled electrical principles
and code requirements.

Computations

Circuit 1:
I = 1,200 VA/ 220 V = 5.45 Ampere
Wire = 5.45 / 80% = 6.82 Amperes , Use 2.0 sqmm TW wire or #14 AWG [1]
Circuit Breaker = Use 15 A Circuit Breaker
Conduit = Use 1/2" diameter PVC conduit.

Circuit 2:
I = 900 VA/ 220 V = 4.09 Ampere
Wire = 4.09/ 80%= 5.11 Amperes , Use 2.0 sqmm TW wire or #14 AWG
Circuit Breaker = Use 15 A Circuit Breaker
Conduit = Use 1/2" diameter PVC conduit.

Circuit 3:
I = 600 VA/ 220 V = 2.72 Ampere
Wire = 2.72/ 80%= 3.41 Amperes , Use 2.0 sqmm TW wire or #14 AWG
Circuit Breaker = 6.82 Amperes, Use 15 A Circuit Breaker
Conduit = Use 1/2" diameter PVC conduit.

Circuit 4:
I = 1,800 VA/ 220 V = 8.18 Ampere
Wire = 8.18/ 80%= 10.23 Amperes , Use 3.5 sqmm TW wire or #12 AWG
Circuit Breaker = Use 20 A CB
Conduit = Use 3/4" diameter PVC conduit.

Circuit 5:
I = 2,160 VA/ 220 V = 9.82 Ampere
Wire = 9.82/ 80% = 12.27 Amperes , Use 3.5 sqmm TW wire or #12 AWG
Circuit Breaker = Use 20 A CB
Conduit = Use 3/4" diameter PVC conduit.

Circuit 6-8:
VA = [ 2.5 HP x ( 746 Watts/ HP ) ] / 0.8 pf (assume 0.8 pf)
VA = 2331 VA

I = 2,331 VA/ 220 V = 10.60 Ampere


Wire = 10.60 x 125% = 13.24 Amperes , Use 3.5 sqmm TW wire or #12 AWG [2]
Circuit Breaker = 5.45 x 250% = 26.5 Amperes, Use 30 A Circuit Breaker [3]
Conduit = Use 3/4" diameter PVC conduit.

Note: since the breaker is 30 Ampere, we could increase the cable size to 5.5 sqmm
(rated 30 amps by NEC ) to maintain the coordination of cable and the circuit breaker.

Circuit 9:
VA = 5000 W / 1.0 pf (heating load is a resistive load w/ 100% pf)
VA = 5,000 VA
I = 5, 000 VA/ 220 V = 22.72 Ampere
Wire = 22.71 / 80% = 28.41 Amperes , Use 8.0 sqmm TW wire or #8 AWG
Circuit Breaker = Use 40 A Circuit Breaker
Conduit = Use 1.0" diameter PVC conduit.

Main Feeder
By inspection:

Continuous loads = 9,963 VA or 45.29 A @ 220V (lighting loads and ACU)


Non- Continuous = 8, 960 VA or 40.72 @ 220V (conv. outlet & range load)
Total Loads = 19, 923 VA

Main Feeder Current = (45.29 x 100% ) + (40.72 x 125%) = 96.19 Amperes [4]

Use 50 sqmm TW cable as main feeder or service entrance wire


Use 100 Ampere MCCB, 1 pole - 10 kAIC*

note: 10 kAIC is just an assumed value, we need short circuit calculation to determine the right
specs of the OCPD to be used in this example

Rules Applied:
1. NEC 210-9a - Maximum to be served by branch circuit must not be less than 80% of the
ampacity of the condutor

2. NEC 430 -22 = The size of the wire supplying motorized load shall not be less than 125%
of the rated full load current of the motor.

3. NEC 430- 52 = The size of the branch circuit protection for motor loads shall not be
greater than 250% of motor full load current for CB and 300% for non-time delay fuses on
full voltage starting.

4. NEC 210-22(C) = Over-Current Protection Device shall be calculated as 100% of non-


continuous load + 125% of the continuous load.
