Electrical Load Calculation Guidelines

We used a safety factor of 1.2 and specific current values for outlets (2A), special loads (10A), and voltage from the company (220V) to calculate cable cross-sectional areas from TABLE 1.1 for an electrical design. Demand factors were provided for lighting (0.8), outlets (0.3), and special loads (1). Circuit breaker ratings given were 10, 16, and 75A, and cables were assumed to be enclosed in a conducting trunk.

Notes About Calculations

1. We used Safety Factor = 1.2 for the all floors calculations.


2. The Current used by each outlet = 2A in calculations.
3. The Current used by each special load = 10A in calculations.
4. Lighting Demand Factor = 0.8
5. Outlets Demand Factor = 0.3
6. Special loads Demand Factor = 1
7. The Voltage from the company = 220 volt
8. TABLE 1.1 is used to find the Cross-Sectional Area of the cable.

TABLE
1.1 20, 25, 30, 36, 40, 50, 60, 63
9. Circuit breaker ratings = 10, 16,

and 75 A.
10. We assumed the cables are burned and enclosed in
conducting trunk in all cases.
