6. ½ HP Air-Conditioning Unit. (Branch Circuit 11 and 12)
Motor full-load current = 4.9A
Load Current; Ampacity of Wire = 125% x 4.9A = 6.13A

• Use four (4) 2.0mm2 THW Copper Wire

• 15mm dia. Rigid PVC Conduit
Maximum inverse time rating of the breaker = 250%
Rating of branch circuit protective device = 250% x 4.9A = 12.25A

• Provide two (2) 20A branch circuit for 0.5HP ACU

7. ¾ HP Air-Conditioning Unit. (Branch Circuit 7)
Motor full-load current = 6.9A
Load Current; Ampacity of Wire = 125% x 6.9A = 8.63A

• Use two (2) 2.0mm2 THW Copper Wire

• 15mm dia. Rigid PVC Conduit
Maximum inverse time rating of the breaker = 250%
Rating of branch circuit protective device = 250% x 6.9A = 17.25A

SERVICE ENTRANCE COMPUTATION

1. Air-Conditioning Unit Load. Computation at 100% demand factor

(2) – 0.5HP ACU, (1) 0.75HP ACU, (1) 1HP ACU
(4.9 + 4.9 + 6.9 + 8)A x 230V = 5681W

2. General Lighting Load and General Use Receptacle. Computed at 100% demand factor
170 sqm x 24V-A/sqm = 4080W

3. Cooking Load
8kW Electric Range. Demand rating 8000W x 80% = 6400W

4. Other Loads:
Two (2) Small appliance branch circuit at 1500V-A/circuit = 2 x 1500V-A = 3000 W
Kitchen and Garage Load at 1500V-A/circuit = 1 x 1500V-A = 1500W
Laundry Load at 1500V-A/circuit = 1 x 1500V-A = 1500W
Other Loads total = 6000w
Application of Demand Factor 6000W x 40% = 2400W

Total Net Computed Load = (5681 + 4080 + 6400 + 2400)W = 18,561W

Circuit Requirement: Twelve (12) 20A 2-wire branch circuit
One (1) 25A 2-wire branch circuit
One (1) 30A 2-wire branch circuit
Service Entrance Conductors: [18,561+25%(8 x 230)]/230 = 82.7A

• Use two (2) 22mm2 THW Copper Wire

Service Equipment:
A. Maximum Current Rating of Protective Device
1. Non-Time Delay Fuse
[(2 x 4.9 x 230) + (6.9 x 230) + 300%(8 x 230) + 4080 + 6400 + 2400]/230 = 96.7A
2. Inverse-Time Circuit Breaker
[(2 x 4.9 x 230) + (6.9 x 230) + 250%(8 x 230) + 4080 + 6400 + 2400]/230 = 92.7A
