1 Design Analysis

This document summarizes the load calculations and circuit requirements for electrical design of a building. It calculates lighting, air conditioning, cooking, water heating and other loads. The total computed load is 56,356VA. It recommends using 24 15A circuits, 17 20A circuits and 17 30A circuits. The required service entrance conductors are two 150mm2 wires rated for 285A. The maximum protective device is 300A fuse or 400A circuit breaker.
