Diversity Factor Electrical Load. The diversity factor can be calculate by following equation. Diversity factor and load factor are closely related.

Diversity factors have been developed for main feeders supplying a number of feeders, and typically, they are 1.10 to 1.50 for lighting loads and 1.50 to 2.00 for power and lighting loads. Is time dependent as well as being dependent upon equipment characteristics. The load factor can be daily load factor, monthly load factor or annual load factor if the time period (t) considered is a day or a month or a year respectively.
