7. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load The Purpose of a Demand Load Study Is to calculate the Connected, Demand and Design load flowing in branch circuits A Load is a component that absorbs real power (kW) from the distribution system. Applicable load types include Non-motor Load, Induction Motor, Synchronous Motor, Schedule, Resistor, Reactor, Capacitor Bank, Single Tuned Filter and High Pass Filter components. (Reactive power (kVAR) can be absorbed from or supplied to the distribution system.)

8. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Connected Load The Connected Load is the value entered as Rated Size in the General Load or the Induction/Synchronous Motor subview of the Component Editor.

10. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load

11. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load The Demand Load is calculated by the program through multiplication of the coincidence factor to the connected load. In PTW the coincidence factor is called the Load Factor and is defined by the user. This is done in the Load Diversity subview of the Component Editor. This subview appears differently for each load component.

14. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Demand Load Library ANSI or IEC Accessed through Document, Library, selecting Demand Load Library, and then selecting IEC.dld

15. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Design Load Design Loads are normally used as the reference for sizing equipment. LCL (Long/Continuous Load) Factor This Factor is read from the Demand Load Library and represents the long or continuous characteristic of the load as defined in NEC and will be applied to the calculated demand load category. NEC Article 100 defines a Continuous Load as, “a load where the maximum current is expected to continue for 3 hours or more.”

16. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Design Load The Design Load is calculated by the program through multiplication of the LCL or Motor Load Design Factor (in Load Study Set up).

19. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Example Project To demostrate for Demand Load Studies Input Data: Source: 208V, 3-Ø, 60Hz, 30.3kA Receptacle Load 1: 300 duplex receptacles Receptacle Load 2: 100 duplex receptacles Receptacle Load 3: 200 duplex receptacles Assume all loads operate at a 0.90 lag pf. and operate continuously over 3 hours per day. All feeders size 12, 4-1/C+G, 600V, CU, THWN, RGS conduit with a length of 100ft

21. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Example Project To demostrate for Demand Load Studies Manual Solution: Note: Because the load power factors are equal, the individual Connected Load kVA magnitudes can be summed directly. 1 duplex receptacle = 180VA per NEC Article 220.14(I) LoadConnected Load Receptacle 1300 x 180VA / 1000 = 54.00 Receptacle 2100 x 180VA / 1000 = 18.00 Receptacle 3200 x 180VA / 1000 = 36.00 Total Served600 x 180VA / 1000 = 108.00

22. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Example Project To demostrate for Demand Load Studies The demand factor is calculated based on the first 10kVA @ 100% demand with the remaining kVA @ 50% per the NEC. LoadDemand Load Receptacle 110.00 + 0.50 x (54.00-10.00) Receptacle 210.00 + 0.50 x (18.00-10.00) Receptacle 310.00 + 0.50 x (36.00-10.00) Total Served10.00 + 0.50 x (108.00-10.00) LoadDemand Load Receptacle 110.00 + 0.50 x 44.00 = 32.00 Receptacle 210.00 + 0.50 x 8.00 = 14.00 Receptacle 310.00 + 0.50 x 26.00 = 23.00 Total Served10.00 + 0.50 x 98.00 = 59.00

23. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Example Project To demostrate for Demand Load Studies Based on assumption that the receptacle loads operate continuously over 3 hours per day the LCL factor is 1.25 for the Design Load calculation LoadDesign Load Receptacle 132.00 x 1.25 = 40.00 Receptacle 214.00 x 1.25 = 17.50 Receptacle 323.00 x 1.25 = 28.75 Total Served59.00 x 1.25 = 73.75

24. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Example Project To demostrate for Demand Load Studies PTW Solution: We need to edit the Demand Load Library – Either edit or create the load category - Receptacle, Constant kVA, 1st 10kVA @ 100%, Remaining @ 50%, LCL=1.25, pf=0.9 lag

25. PTW Part 1 - Demand Load Example Project To demostrate for Demand Load Studies In the General Load subview enter the Connected Load in the Rated Size field and the Power Factor info in those fields. In the Load Diversity subview link the component to the Receptacle Demand Library Load category. Do this for eac load.
