MAXIMUM DEMAND PROJECT ASSIGNMENT
- The specifications provided are for 5 x Shop Units supplied underground power and to be Multiple Master metered. (check Western Power website for meter layout details)
- Only a minimum amount of information has been provided for this project. Circuit loading, number of final sub-circuits and many other specifications have been left out deliberately. Provide your own specifications for cable sizes, circuit protection device size, ka rating and type, minimum transformer size (to be located on premises), number of circuits for each of lighting, power, air conditioning, hot water services etc. Allow a 0.8 power factor for the Transformer but do not allow for future expansion.
- The Consumer Main and Sub-main cables are to be V75 multicore. The Consumer mains are buried enclosed in the ground. The Sub-mains are installed in conduit, spaced on perforated tray.
- When selecting minimum cables sizes you must provide evidence (Via Calculation, Tables, clause's etc) to ensure they satisfy Volt Drop, Cable Current carrying Capacity and Faut loop Impedance.
