A 190-m² dwelling unit has typical household loads including one 3phase 3-TR ACU, one 2-HP ACU, two 1.5-Hp ACU, one 1-Hp ACU,
three 3.5-kW bathroom shower heater, one 7-kW range, one 2-kW microwave oven, one 2.5 kW air fryer/cooker, one 1.8-kW washing
machine, one 4-kW clothes dryer, one 1.5-Hp submersible pump, and 1-Hp booster pump. If the service is 3-phase 230 V 3-wire 60
Hz, determine the following:
a) total net computed load
b) minimum size of service entrance conductor (THW) and its conduit (RMC)
c) maximum size of service equipment
d) minimum grounding conductor
Air Conditioning Load
One 3phase 3-TR ACU
1TR=1.5kVA
3TR = 3(1500) = 4500VA

One 2-HP ACU = (12)(230) = 2760VA

Two 1.5Hp ACU = (2)(10)(230) =4600VA

One 1 Hp ACU = (8)(230) =1840VA

Sub-Total =13700VA

Light and Convenience Receptacle Load

Cooking Loads
2-kW microwave oven =2000VA
2.5 kW air fryer/cooker =2500VA
Sub-total =4500VA
Application of Demand Factor
4500VA(0.75) =3375VA

7-kW range = 7000(0.8) =5600VA


Sub-total =8975VA
Other Loads
Small Appliance Circuit =1500
One 1.8-kW washing machine =1800VA
Three 3.5-kW shower heater=3(3500VA) = 10500VA
One 4-kW clothes dryer =4000VA
One 1.5-Hp submersible pump=(10)(230) =2300VA
One 1-Hp booster pump=(8)(230) =1840VA
Total Other Loads =21940VA
Application of Demand Factor
21940VA(0.40) =8776VA
TOTAL NET COMPUTED LOAD =36011VA ………………………………..a.
SERVICE CONDUCTOR
36011+25%(4500)
𝐼𝑊 = √3×230

SERVICE EQUIPMENT
36011+150%(4500)
𝐼𝑊 = √3×230
= 107𝐴 Use 110A, 3P, 240V, MCCB ………………………………..c.

GROUND
Use 1-40 mm2 Cu Ground Wire ………………………………..d.
2. Prepare a schedule of load for a sub-panel board consisting of two 1φ 1.5-Hp water pumps and two 1φ 1-Hp booster pumps if the
available line is 3φ 3-wire 220 V 60 Hz service. Use THHN concentric stranded conductors and Rigid PVC Conduit Sched 40.
