Computation for a Single Family Unit
With 150 Square Meter Floor Area
230 V Single Phase Service
1. Total loads
A. Air conditioning load:
Two 1.5kVA package type ACU
2 × 1.5kVA = 3000VA
Total ACU Loads= 3000 VA
Use two- 20 AT,60 Hz, 2p, 230V THHN wire in
B. Lighting Loads:
Lighting Loads
Twenty-nine 10VA Phillips LED Pinlights
29 × 10 VA = 290 VA
Seven 20 VA Incandescent Ceiling Lights
7 × 20 VA= 140 VA
Total General Lighting Loads = 430 VA
C. Convenience Outlets:
Fourteen 180VA double gang convenience Outlet
14 × 180 VA = 2,520 VA
Nine 180 VA double gang convenience outlet
9 x 180 VA = 1,620 VA
Total Convenience Outlet Loads = 4,140 VA
D. Other Loads:
One 20 ampere small appliance circuit @ 1,500 VA = 1500 VA
One 350 VA Top Load Impeller Washing Machine
350 VA × 1 = 350 VA
One 600 VA Direct Inverter Refrigerator
600 VA × 1 = 600 VA
One 1.5 hp water pump
230 x 10 = 2,300 VA
Sub Total Load = 4,750 VA
Application of Demand Factors( see section 2.20.4.3)
Demand Factor @100%
4,750 VA x 1 = 4,750 volt- amperes
Total Net Computed Loads: 12, 320 VA
Application of Demand Factors
IT= 12,320 VA × .8/ 230
IT= 8,395.2 VA / 230
IT= 42.85 VA
IFL= Total Net Computed Loads VA + 25%( HML) / 230
= 12,320 VA + .25 (2,300) /230
= 12,320 VA + 575 /230
= 12,895 VA /230
= 56.07 VA
