Service Entrance Conductor & Service Equipment Calculations for Dwelling Unit Example 1 – One Family Dwelling Feeder Calculation for Single Family Dwelling Unit up to 150m² more than 6 circuits, 230V, 60hz, Single Phase Service Given : 145m² (habitable area excluding terrace, balcony & porches), 2 – Small Appliance Circuit, 1 - Laundry Circuit, 1 – 8kW Electric Range, 3 – 1hp Room ACU, 2 – 2.5kW Shower Heater, 1 – Water Pump 1.5hp Determine the Service Entrance Conductor & Service Equipment Solution : a) General Lighting Load (GLL) : = 145m² x 24 VA/m² = 3,480VA
b) Small Appliance Load (SA) :
= 2 x 1,500 = 3,000VA C) Laundry Circuit = 1,500VA
SUB – TOTAL======== 7,980VA
Application of Demand Factors See Table 2.20.3.3 1st 3000VA @ 100% D.F. = 3,000VA Remainder @ 35% D.F. (7,980 – 3,000) x 0.35 = 1,743VA ------------ TOTAL = 4,743VA d) Other Loads 1 – 8kW Electric Range @ 80% D.F. = 6,400VA See Table 2.20.3.16 3 – Room ACU 1hp 8A x 230 x 3 = 5,520VA See Table Table 4.30.14.2 2 – Shower Heater @ 2.5kW each = 5,000VA 1 – Water Pump 1.5hp 10A x 230 = 2,300VA See Table Table 4.30.14.2 SUB – TOTAL ======= 19,220VA Total Net Computed Load Net Total GLL, SA & Laundry = 4,743VA Other Loads = 19,220VA ---------------- 23,963 VA Service Entrance Conductor(SEC) : = [4,743+6,400+5,520+5,000+1.25(2300)]/230 = 106.68A Alternate Method : = [23,963 + 0.25(2300)] / 230 = 106.68A Use THW Copper 38mm² (115A) See Table 3.10.2.6(B)(16) Service Equipment (SE) : = [4,743+6,400+5,520+5,000+2.5(2,300)]/230 = 27,413 / 230 = 119.18 A Alternate Method : = [23,963 + 1.5(2,300)]/230 = 119.18 A Use 100AT, 100AF, 2P, MCCB Example 2 – One Family Dwelling Single Family Dwelling Unit, more than 150m² Floor Area, 230V, 60Hz, Single Phase Service Given : 250m² Floor Area, 6 – Room ACU 1.5hp, 4 – Small Appliance, 1 – Laundry Circuit, 2 – WMO @ 4kW each, 1 – Electric Range 8kW, 1 – 12kW Electric Range, 1 – MWO 1.5kW, 1 – Clothes Dryer @ 5kW, 4 – Shower Heater @ 2.5kW each, 1 – Water Pump 1.5hp Determine the Service Entrance Conductor & Service Equipment Solution : a) Room ACU Load : 6 - 1.5hp (FLC = 10A) = 10 x 230 x 6 = 13,800VA b) General Lighting Load (GLL) : = 250m² x 24VA/m² = 6,000VA c) Cooking Appliances Load : 2 – Wall Mounted Oven (WMO) @ 4kW each 4,000 x 2 = 8,000VA 1 – Electric Range @ 8kW = 8,000VA ------------- 16,000VA Net Load : 16,000 x 55% D.F. = 8,800VA See Table 2.20.3.16 (Column B) 1 – Microwave Oven (MWO) @1.5kW = 1,500VA x 80% D.F. = 1,200VA See Table 2.20.3.16 (Column A) 1 – Electric Range @ 12kW = 8,000VA See Table 2.20.3.16 (Column C) Total Net Cooking Appliances Load = 18,000VA d) Other Loads : 4 – Small Appliance @ 1,500VA each = 6,000VA 1 – Laundry Circuit @ 1,500VA = 1,500VA 1 – Clothes Dryer @ 5kW = 5,000VA 4 – Shower Heater @2.5kW each = 10,000VA 1 – Water Pump @ 1.5hp (FLC = 10A) = 10 X 230 (See Table 4.30.14.2) = 2,300VA --------------- 24,800VA Apply Demand Factor See Section 2.20.3.23 = 24,800 x 0.40 ======= 9,920VA Total Net Computed Load = ACU load + GLL + Net Cooking Load + Net Other Loads = 13,800 + 6,000 + 18,000 + 9,920 = 47,720 VA Service Entrance Conductor(SEC) SEC = [1.25(2300) + 11,500 + 6,000 + 18,000 + 9,920] / 230 = 209.98A Alternate Method : SEC = [47,720 + .25(2300)]/230 = 209.98A Use 100mm² THW Copper (220A) Service Equipment (SE) : SE = [2.50(2300) + 11,500 + 6,000 + 18,000 + 9,920] / 230 = 222.48A Alternate Method : SE = [47,720 + 1.50(2300)]/230 = 222.48A Use 200AT, 225AF, 2P, MCCB Example 3 – One Family Dwelling Given : 240m² Floor Area, 5 – Room ACU 1.5hp, 3 – Small Appliance, 1 – Laundry Circuit, 2 – WMO @ 4kW each, 1 – Electric Range 6kW, 1 – 12kW Electric Range, 2 – MWO 1.5kW, 1 – Clothes Dryer @ 5kW, 3 – Shower Heater @ 2.5kW each, 1 – Water Pump 1.0hp Determine the Service Entrance Conductor & Service Equipment Solution : a) ACU Load : ____11,500 VA____ b) GLL : ____ 5760 VA ___ c) Net Cooking Load : __17,950 VA___ d) Net Other Loads : ___8,136 VA____ e) Total Net Computed Load : _43,346 VA___ f) SEC calculated & THW Copper __190.96 A___ Use 100mm² THW Copper (220A) g) SE calculated & Rating of the Main C.
