This document contains calculations to determine the load requirements for a motor and generator. It calculates the full load kW, kVA, and current of a 120kW motor. It then determines the starting kVA and current requirements when using an auto transformer starter. It sums the starting kVA and current of all equipment. Finally, it calculates the running kVA, current, and required size of a diesel generator to power the equipment, including a 10% expansion factor and 80% average equipment use.

Load Calculation-5:
Full Load KW of Motor=(No X Watt X Diversity Factor) /1000
Full Load KW of Motor =(1x120000x0.8)/1000=96KW Full Load KVA of Motor =KW / P.F Full Load KVA of Motor =96 / 0.8=120KVA(L) Full Load current of Motor =(No X Watt X Diversity Factor) / (Volt x P.F) Full Load current of Motor =(1x120000x0.8) / (1.732x430x0.8) =167 Amp -(Q) Type of Starter=Auto Transformer Starting KVA of Motor =3 X (KW / Starting P.F) Starting KVA of Motor=3 X (96 / 0.7)=411.4KVA(5) Starting Current=3 X Full Load Current Starting Current=3 X 167 = 501 Amp.(E)
Total Load Calculation:
Total Starting KVA = (1) + (2) +(3) + (4) + (5)
Total Starting KVA =0.4+9.6+1.6+45.7+411.4 =468.7 KVA Total Starting Current = (A) + (B) +(C) + (D) + E Total Starting Current =2+42+7+174+501= 725 Amp Total Running KVA =(H)+(I)+(J)+(K)+(L) Total Running KVA =4+6+1+10+120= 137KVA Total Running Current=(M)+(N)+(O)+(P)+(Q) Total Running Current=2+26+4+43+167= 242 Amp Size of Diesel Generator= Starting KVA X Future Expansion X Average Use of Equipments Size of Diesel Generator=468.7 X 1.1 X 0.8 Size of Diesel Generator= 412 KVA
