Load Calculation

This document calculates load and sizing requirements for a building with 8 flats. It summarizes: 1) The total building load is 164.4KW when all loads are running, but typically only 70% of loads run at a time, giving a total load of 115.08KW. 2) The recommended transformer rating is 150KVA to supply this typical load while allowing for 20% overload. 3) The emergency generator rating is 40KVA to supply the 30.6KW emergency load from flats, common areas, lift and water pump. 4) A 90KVR power factor improvement plant is recommended to correct the power factor of 0.8 used in the calculations.

Find out transformer rating :


Our designed building 4 floor each floor having 2 flat.so total number of flat 8.
So
1) 8 flat total load = 17025*8= 136200 watt =136.2 KW
2) (Ground Floor + Stair + Roof ) load =3200W=3.2KW
3) Lift Load =20KW
4) Water Pump =5KW

Total load our designed building = 164.4KW

We know at a time all load doesn’t running .so we assume 70% of load running at
a time.
So now total number of load =70% of 164.4=115.08 KW

Transformer rating= 115.08/0.8=143.85≅ 150 KVA


[ here, let power factor 0.8 ]

Find out Generator rating :

1) 8 flat total Emergency Load =300*8=2400W=2.4KW


2) (Ground Floor + Stair + Roof ) load =3200W=3.2KW
3) Lift Load =20KW
4) Water Pump =5KW

Generator supply emergency case Total load our


designed building = 30.6 KW

Generator rating= 30.6/0.8=38.25≅ 40 KVA


Find PFI(power factor Improvement) Plant rating :

PFI Plant rating = 150*0.6=90KVR
