Difference between Load factor vs Demand factor vs Diversity factor
This page compares Load factor vs Demand factor vs Diversity factor and mentions formulas or equations of them.
Load Factor
It is ratio of average load to maximum demand during certain period of time (e.g. day/month/year) is called load factor.
Following formula is used to calculate Load Factor.
Load factor = Average Demand/Maximum Demand
Since average load is always less than maximum demand, hence load factor is always less than unity.
Demand Factor
The ratio of actual maximum demand on the system to the total rated load connected with the system is called
demand factor. It is always less than unity. Following formula is used to calculate demand factor.
Demand Factor = Maximum Demand/Connected Load
Diversity Factor
The ratio of sum of individual maximum demand of all the consumers supplied by it to maximum demand of power station is
called diversity factor.
Following formula is used to calculate diversity factor.
Diversity Factor = (Sum of Individual Max. Demand)/(Max. Demand of Power Station)
