Steps :

1- Calculate wattage for lighting of each room


Incandescent : Wattage = 0.2 X Area X Lux
Fluorescent : Wattage = 0.068 X Area X Lux

Usually in Kitchen and


Bathrooms

2- Determine No. of lamps and there wattage in each room

Example: Living room 9.5 m2 with 200 Lux


Required  Prequired= 0.2 X 9.5 X 200 = 380 watt
Installed  Pinstalled = 4 X 100 w lamps = 400 watt
3- Determine the current supplied to each room for lighting

I Inc. =1

220 Xp. f
F. =0.6

4- Choose No. of Light circuits (Usually 2)


Almost equal currents & no overlap

I L1  0.66 X  Currents of rooms


connected to this line

Diversity factor or Demand factor


5- Socket branch circuit calculation :

a) Normal sockets:
For general devices , 2 A, 5 A or 10 A

Socket Lines : N1 , N2 , N3 , …..

Each line has 5  7 sockets

IN1= ILargest socket on N1 + 0.2 ∑ I other sockets


(b) Power Sockets:
Each special device has its own branch circuit

Normal Sockets:
Given in Problem :
All 5 A on 3 Lines . Each line carries 5 7 Sockets

In some problems may be (4  6) as in lecture

So we have 15  21 socket
