    This document contains instructions for an activity asking students to: 1) Plot a daily load curve on graph paper showing the load levels over time for two 7,000 kW diesel generator units. 2) Calculate the load factor and capacity factor for the first unit which carries all base load up to 7,000 kW. 3) Determine the operation factor, use factor, and utilization factor for the second unit which carries any load exceeding 7,000 kW. The document provides a table with the load levels over a 24 hour period to use to plot the load curve and perform the calculations. It asks for the answers to be written on short bond paper and the load curve to be on graphing paper

    Activity no. 2
    Give what is asked in the questions below. Show your complete solutions and write all your
    answers in a SHORT BOND PAPER. For the load curve, put it in a GRAPHING PAPER.

    Two (2) 7,000-kW diesel-generator units carry the load shown below. (a) Plot the daily load
    curve using a graphing paper. (b) Unit no. 1 carries all load not exceeding 7,000 kW and is
    therefore considered the base load generating set. Calculate its load factor and capacity factor.
    (c) All loads in excess of 7000 kW are carried by Unit no. 2. Determine its operation factor, use
    factor and utilization factor.
