The application of load factors to each drive provides an absolute maximum demand when every drive is running.
The inclusion of a diversity to each drive the considers the period for which that drive is likely to run. It does not apply an overall diversity to the plant as a whole.
To provide a potentially more accurate average load figure for a production plant this size, we recommend the application of an overall diversity factor of 0.85
