BRANCH CIRCUIT CALCULATIONS

GENERAL INFORMATION

PANEL CODE: PB1

CIRCUIT NUMBER: 1
LOAD DESCRIPTION: 4 – 81W Chandelier, 15 – 9W Pin light, 2 – 24W Strip Lights
NO. OF LIGHTING OUTLETS: 21
OPERATING VOLTAGE: 230 V
OPERATING FREQUENCY: 60 Hz

CALCULATIONS

VOLT-AMPERE/CIRCIUT:

VA/Ckt = (No. of Lighting Outlet) × (Watts)

= (21) × (100w)
= 2100 VA

LOAD CURRENT, IL:

IL = (VA/Ckt) × (Operating Voltage)

= (2100) / (230V)
= 9.13 A

SIZING

SIZE OF BRANCH CIRCUIT CONDUCTOR:(From Table 3.10.2.6(B)(16), page 174)

Use: 2-3.5 mm2, THHN Copper Wire/30 A

SIZE OF CONDUIT (NON-METALLIC): (From Table C.10, page 1021)

Use: 20 mm Ø PVC Conduit

OVERCURRENT PROTECTION: (From Article 2.10.2.6, Section A, page 45)

Use: 2P – 20 AT, 50 AF, MCCB, 240 V, 60 Hz
