Question

the connected load of a consumer is 2kw and his maximum demand is 1.5kw.the load factor of the consumer is

56. The connected load of a consumer is 2 KW and his maximum demand is 1.5 KW. The load factor of the consumer is

(1) 0.75
(2) 0.375
(3) 1.33
(4) None of these

Answer 1

In the context of electricity,the diversity factor (or simultaneity factor. ) is the ratio of the sum of the individual non-coincident maximum loads of various subdivisions of the system to the maximum demand of the complete system. The diversity factor is always greater than 1.

Answer 2

None of these(option 4) is the correct answer.

What is load factor?

The load factor is a metric that determines how efficient your household's electrical energy usage is. It's computed by multiplying the total amount of power (kWh) used in a month by your peak demand (kW) multiplied by the number of days in the billing cycle and the number of hours in a day.
