THIRD SCHEDULE

(regulation 11)
CALCULATION OF MAXIMUM CURRENT DEMAND FOR DOMESTIC INSTALLATION

This Schedule gives the determination of the maximum current demand for an installation and includes the
current demand to be assumed for commonly used equipment.

The current demand of a final circuit is determined by summating the current demands of all points of
utilisation and equipment in the circuit and, where appropriate, making an allowance for diversity. Typical
current demands to be used for this summation are given in Table A.

The maximum current demand of a circuit supplying a number of final circuits may be assessed by using the
allowances for diversity given in Table B which are applied to the total current demand of all the equipment
supplied by that circuit and not by summating the current demands of the individual final circuits obtained as
outlined above. In Table B the allowances are expressed as percentages of the rated full load current of the
current-using equipment.

TABLE A

Current demand to be assumed for points of utilisation and current-using equipment


Point of utilisation or current-using equipment Current demand to be assumed
Socket outlets other than 2A socket outlets Rated current
Lighting outlet* Current equivalent to the connected load, with a min-
imum of 100W per lamp-holder
Electric clock, electric shaver supply unit, shaver May be neglected
socket, outlet, bell transformer, and current using
equipment of a rating not greater than 5 VA
Household cooking appliance The first 10A of the rated current plus 30% of the re-
mainder of the rated current plus 5A if a socket outlet
is incorporated in the control unit
All other stationary equipment Malaysian Standard rated current, or normal current

__________________________________________________________________

* Note- Final circuits for discharge lighting are arranged so as to be capable of carrying the total steady current, viz. that of the
lamp(s) and any associated gear and also their harmonic currents. Where more exact information is not available, the demand
in volt-amperes is taken as the rated lamp watts multiplied by not less than 1.8. This multiplier is based upon the assumption
that the circuit is corrected to a power factor of not less than 0.85 lagging, and takes into account control gear losses and
harmonic currents.

TABLE B

Allowances for Diversity


Page 77

Purpose of final circuit fed from conductors or Individual household installations, including individual
switchgear to which diversity applies dwellings of a block
1. Lighting 66% of total current demand
2. Power 100% of total current demand up to 10 amperes +
50% of any current demand in excess of 10 Amperes
3. Cooking appliances 10 Amperes + 30% f.1 of connected cooking appli-
ances in excess of 10 Amperes + 5 Amperes if sock-
et outlet incorporated in unit
4. Water-heaters (instantaneous type)* 100% f.1. of largest appliance + 100% f.1. of 2nd
largest appliance + 25% f.1. of remaining appliances
5. Water-heaters (thermostatically controlled) No diversity allowable
6. Standard arrangements of final circuits using 100% of current demand of largest circuit + 40% of
socket outlets current demand of every other circuit

__________________________________________________________________

* For the purpose of this Table, an instantaneous water-heater is deemed to be a water-heater of any loading which heats water
only while the tap is turned on and therefore uses electricity intermittenly.

# It is important to ensure that the distribution boards are of sufficient rating to take the total load connected
to them without the application of any diversity.
Made the 19th January 1994.
