METHODOLOGIES FOR LOAD ESTIMATION

AREA LOAD DENSITY METHOD


This method is required to be implemented as per Local Regulations, covered
area of the customer premises is used as basic parameter for the assessment of
the size of power supply to the customer.
Such customers are normally expected to have uniform behavior in terms of electrical requirements.
NOTE : Connected loads according to Area Load Density Method are only covering normal
loads , any additional loads should be considered & added as additional special
loads.
Examples: Swimming pool loads, Additional elevator………etc.

METHODOLOGIES FOR LOAD ESTIMATION

NOTE: Customers who have a variety of load requirements ( hotels, factories, hospitals……etc.).
Although we can take the values given by the area load density method as an average for the
estimated load during the planning of a new area “ an infra structure project” , but we can’t take
these values as reference during a detailed design of a building of that nature.

1-Connected loads according to Area Load Density Method are only covering normal loads .

2- those customers have load requirement irrespective to floor area or lot size.

AREA LOAD DENSITY METHOD

1-DETERMINE BUILT-UP AREA:


It is the total built-up area for a plot land, it is calculated based on the drawings provided by the
customer of its building or the project.
𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝐶𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑑 (𝐵𝑢𝑖𝑙𝑡 − 𝑈𝑝)𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎
= 𝑃𝑙𝑜𝑡 𝐿𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎
× 𝐴𝑙𝑙𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑑 𝑃𝑒𝑟𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑢𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑜𝑛 𝑃𝑙𝑜𝑡 𝐿𝑎𝑛𝑑
× 𝑁𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝐹𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑟𝑠.

AREA LOAD DENSITY METHOD

2- Calculate the estimated load:


Estimated load = VA/m2 X Total Built up Area.

This value help us during early design stages to determine:


1- the connection with the utility “ the need for a private LV substation inside the building”
2-the architecture used for the connection with the utility.
3-the bulk equipment used inside the building for the approved architecture “ transformer, RMU, MV
Distributor”.

Load estimation During detailed design of a building

This is a necessary step during the concept design of a building


1- we divide the building in to spaces “ office, halls , corridors, bathrooms, stairs,…… etc.”
2- we break down the load of each space.
3- we acquire the power needs from other disciplines “ Mechanical loads , Light Current Loads-…”.
4- we determine the ( emergency – UPS ) load.
