Introduction
Introduction
DISTRIBUTION PLANNING STANDARDS ( DPS)
ESTIMATION OF CUSTOMER LOAD GUIDELINE
(CONNECTED LOAD & DEMAND LOAD)
Supply Request :
It is the request applied by the customer to get electric power supply from SEC's
power system. It can contain a single building or multiple buildings and
subsequently it can contain a single unit or multiple units and subsequently it can
contain a single KWH Meter or multiple KWH Meters.
Definitions
Connected Load (CL) :
It is the sum of all the nameplate ratings of all present and future electrical equipment &
installations belongs to the customer's building/facility and could be used by the customer in future.
It is to be estimated before applying any demand factor or diversity factor. It is expressed in Volt-
Amperes (VA).
Demand Load (DL) :
It is the individual maximum demand load of a customer's building's unit usually occurring
during the peak loading period (either estimated or measured). It must be calculated from the
connected load of that customer's building's multiply by the approved demand factor of that
customer's building's unit. It is expressed in Volt- Amperes (VA).
Diversity Factor :
It is the inverse of the Coincidence Factor.
CLASSIFICATION OF CUSTOMER FACILITIES
Customers' Facilities type should be determined according to the nature of the use
of their Facilities in reality.

Methodology
Methodology
Area load density method
covered area of the customer premises is used as basic parameter for the assessment of the
size of power supply to the customer.
customers are normally expected to have uniform behavior in terms of electrical requirements.
Conventional declared load method
customers who have a variety of load requirements.
Information regarding the ratings of equipment to be installed and their usage is mainly
required.
2) connected loads estimation for normal commercial shops (facility category c2):
Where:
CL = Customer Connected Load for an intermediate area value
A = Covered area of the customer which is an intermediate value
A1 = Covered area step in the table immediate lower than area A
A2 = Covered area step in the table immediate higher than area A
CL1 = Connected load for area A1
CL2 = Connected load for area A2
4) connected loads estimation for combined type customer (c1 and c2) :
In case the customer building consists of both residential and commercial load e.g. Shops on ground floors
and residential apartments on above floors the connected load shall be assessed separately corresponding to
the areas associated with each using the respective tables.
The total connected load shall be the sum total of the two values.
Connected load estimation
5) connected loads estimation for c1 and c2 with Central ac:
Residential Customers = 100 VA/m2
Commercial Customers = 150 VA/m2
Note: If the customer declared load for central AC happens to be less than the unit AC load as
computed above, central AC load shall be ignored.
6) connected loads estimation for customer categories c1 and c2 with built-up area
exceeding table limits:
Additional volume (m3) = [total height (m) - standard height (3.5 m)] X covered area (m2)
Additional AC load (VA) =(30 VA/m3) × additional volume (m3)
Total connected load = standard connected load from tables + additional AC Load
8) connected loads estimation for other area-based customer facility types (c3 – c17):
9) connected loads estimation for non-area based customer facility types (c18 to c29):
For all such customers (from type C18 up to type C29), SEC is to ask customer for declared
List (use conventional declared load method) and use individual equipment demand loads.
When a customer facility with a District Cooling system (Load without AC) apply to get power from SEC
network , SEC should ask this customer to make an agreement with Cooling System Provider.
