LOAD (b)<br />
7 Heaters over 3 phases means one phase must supply 3 heaters<br />
Steady State Transient<br />
Hence maximum single phase load is: There is no transient condition to consider<br />
3 x 240 x 20 = 14.4kVA (Section 4512)<br />
1000<br />
From Section 4501, heaters can be assumed to<br />
run at unity power factor; hence load = 14.4kW<br />
LOAD (c)<br />
4 motors over 3 phases means that one phase must supply 2 motors<br />
Steady State Transient<br />
Hence maximum steady state phase load is For the one phase with 2 motors starting<br />
given below. simultaneously, from Section 4522:<br />
SECTION 4595<br />
January 1990<br />
Page 2<br />
From manufacturer’s data; 5 h.p. single phase D.O.L. Start Factor = 7.1<br />
motor typical performance figures are:<br />
Hence Start kVA = D.O.L. Start Factor x h.p. rating.<br />
Efficiency = 0.78 p.u. rating. = 7.1 x 5 x 2<br />
Power Factor = 0.8 p.f. lag<br />
= 71 kVA<br />
Steady State Load is:<br />
2 x 5 x 0.746 = 9.6kW (Section 4512)<br />
0.78<br />
LOAD (d)<br />
and 9.6 = 12.0kVA<br />
0.8<br />
5 welding sets across one pair of 415V lines given a ‘worst case’ of one pair of lines having to supply 2 welding sets.<br />
Steady State Transient<br />
Hence loading is: No transient condition details are given for<br />
consideration<br />
2 x 415 x 11 = 9.1kVA (Section 4512)<br />
1000<br />
and 9.1 x 0.4 = 3.6kW
