COMPUTATION FOR ELECTRICAL WIRING DESIGN ANALYSIS

PROJECT TITLE: SINGLE FAMILLY DWELLING.

LOCATION: BRGY. 60-B MADILADIG, LAOAG CITY.
FLOOR AREA: 81 sq. meter.

1. Total Load:
Floor area of the x Volt-Ampere/sq. meter = Volt-ampere
Building (based on PEC table 2.20.23)
81 sq. meter x 24 VA/sq. meter = 1,944 Volt-Ampere

a. General Lighting and Convenience Receptacle Loads

81 sq. meter x 24 VA = 1,944 Volt-Ampere
I = 1,944 VA ÷ 230v = 8.45 Amps.
 Provide 15-amphere trip circuit breaker, 2-2.0mm² THHN
stranded copper wire for General Lighting.
 Provide 20-amphere trip circuit breaker, 2-3.5mm² THHN +
Grounding wire stranded copper wire for Convenience Receptacle.

 Specific Appliances or Similar Loads:

b. Small Appliances
(Refrigerator 1hp) @ 1840 VA = 1,840 Volt-Ampere
I = 1,840 ÷ 230v = 8 Amps.
 Provide 20-amphere trip circuit breaker, 2-3.5mm² THHN +
Grounding wire stranded copper wire for Refrigerator Outlets.

c. (Electric Water Pump 1hp) @ 1840 VA = 1,840 Volt-Ampere

I = 1,840 VA ÷ 230v = 8 Amps.
 Provide 20-amphere trip circuit breaker, 2-3.5mm² THHN +
Grounding wire stranded copper wire for Refrigerator Outlets.

SUB-TOTAL = 5,624 Volt-Ampere

 Application of Demand Factors:

First 3000 Volt-Ampere @ 100% D.F. = 3,000 Volt-Ampere
Remainder @ 35% D.F. = 1,218 Volt-Ampere

d. Other / Motor Loads:

(1 hp Air-conditioning Unit) @1840 VA = 1,840 Volt-Ampere
I = 1,840 ÷ 230v = 8 Amps.
 Provide 20-amphere trip circuit breaker, 2-3.5mm² THHN +
Grounding wire stranded copper wire for Air-conditioning Unit.

TOTAL NET COMPUTED LOAD = 6,058 Volt-Ampere
2. Circuit Requirements:
a. Use 15-amperes, 2-wire for General Lightings branch circuit.
b. Use 20-amperes, 2-wire for Convenience Receptacle branch circuit.
c. Use 20-amperes, 2-wire for Refrigerator branch circuit.
d. Use 20-amperes, 2-wire for Air-conditioning Unit branch circuit.
e. Use 20-amperes, 2-wire for Electric Water Pump branch circuit.C PIPE
3. Service Entrance Conductor or Entrada:
Total full load current:
= 6,058 VA + 25% (1,840 VA) ÷ 230 V = 28 Amperes
 Use 2-14mm² THW Copper wires.

4. Service Equipment:
a. Maximum Current Rating of Protection Device, with:
1. Non-time Delay Fuse.
= 3000 VA +1,218 VA + 300% (1,840 VA) ÷ 230 V = 42 Amperes
2. Inverse Time Circuit Breaker
= 3000 VA +1,218 VA + 250% (1,840 VA) ÷ 230 V = 38 Amperes
 Use 60AT/100AF or 70AT/100AF 2-pole, 250 volts.
Molded Case Circuit Breaker.
