Load Estimation

This document summarizes the methods of load estimation according to the Egyptian Electrical Code. It discusses using the build-up area method to estimate the electrical load of a university building. The total connected load was calculated to be 1604 KVA by multiplying the area of each floor by the standard load value. The total demand load was determined to be 1000 KVA by applying diversity factors to account for simultaneous loading.

The Methods of Load estimation.


• 1- Build up area  Calculate the gross interior area of the building,
Determine the load density according to type of the building (from tables /
Codes or standards), and Multiply gross interior area by its load density to
get the estimated electrical load for this building.

• 2- Space by space  Divide the building into different spaces based on its function
(for example, office, storage, mechanical, and corridor).

• 3- Load types  Divide the whole building loads into different types (for example,
Lights, Power, mechanical, ……..).
