Data Source and Methodology

Authoritative data source: IET Wiring Regulations, BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 and IET On‑Site Guide, 7th Edition (2022), Table A2 — Diversity. Official IET links: BS 7671 overview and On‑Site Guide.

Tutti i calcoli si basano rigorosamente sulle formule e sui dati forniti da questa fonte.

Diversity values are guidance to help estimate demand; they are not prescriptive. Designers must consider usage patterns, simultaneity, and manufacturer instructions.

The Formulas Explained

Single‑phase current from power:

$$ I_{1\phi} = \frac{1000 \cdot P_{\mathrm{kW}}}{V \cdot \mathrm{PF}} $$

Three‑phase current from power (balanced):

$$ I_{3\phi} = \frac{1000 \cdot P_{\mathrm{kW}}}{\sqrt{3} \cdot V_{\mathrm{LL}} \cdot \mathrm{PF}} $$

Cooker demand (IET OSG Table A2):

$$ I_{\mathrm{d}} = 10 + 0.3 \cdot \max\!\big(I_{\mathrm{total}} - 10,\,0\big) + 5\cdot s $$ where s = 1 if a socket‑outlet is incorporated in the cooker control unit, else 0.

Socket‑style “first 10 A + 30% remainder” rule:

$$ I_{\mathrm{d}} = 10 + 0.3 \cdot \max\!\big(I_{\mathrm{rated}} - 10,\,0\big) + \Delta $$ with optional addition Δ (e.g., +5 A) where applicable.

Lighting diversity (IET OSG Table A2):

$$ I_{\mathrm{d}} = 0.66 \cdot I_{\mathrm{total}} $$

Custom diversity factor f (0–1):

$$ I_{\mathrm{d}} = f \cdot I_{\mathrm{total}} $$

Glossary of Variables

  • V: Nominal voltage in volts. Single‑phase: 230 V typical; three‑phase line‑to‑line: 400 V typical.
  • PF: Power factor (0–1). Ratio of real to apparent power.
  • P: Load power in kilowatts (kW).
  • I_total: Calculated load current before diversity.
  • I_d: Diversified current (the demand used in summation).
  • kVA: Apparent power, calculated from current and voltage.
  • kW: Estimated active power using the assumed PF.
  • Δ: Optional additive current (e.g., +5 A for a cooker control unit socket).
  • f: Diversity factor (e.g., 0.66 for 66%).

How It Works: A Step‑By‑Step Example

Suppose a single‑phase dwelling at 230 V with:

  • Lighting: 900 W total → I_total = 900 / 230 = 3.91 A → I_d = 0.66 × 3.91 = 2.58 A
  • Cooker: 8 kW, no socket → I_total = 8000 / 230 = 34.78 A → I_d = 10 + 0.3 × (34.78 − 10) = 17.43 A
  • Socket circuit (rule 10 A + 30% remainder): 32 A → I_d = 10 + 0.3 × (32 − 10) = 16.6 A
  • Shower: 9.5 kW at PF=1 → I_total = 9500 / 230 = 41.30 A → I_d = 1.0 × 41.30 = 41.30 A

Summed maximum demand ≈ 2.58 + 17.43 + 16.6 + 41.3 = 77.91 A.
Apparent power ≈ 230 × 77.91 / 1000 = 17.92 kVA. With PF≈1, active power ≈ 17.92 kW.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is this calculator compliant with BS 7671?

It applies BS 7671 principles and the IET On‑Site Guide (Table A2) diversity guidance. Always verify with the latest edition and project‑specific requirements.

Can I use custom diversity factors?

Yes. Choose “Fixed current” or “Power (kW)” and set a custom diversity percentage to reflect usage patterns or manufacturer data.

How do I enter EV chargers?

Enter as “Power (kW)” at PF≈1 and use 100% diversity unless a smart load management system justifies a lower value.

What about heat pumps and motors?

Use “Power (kW)” with an appropriate PF (e.g., 0.9) and apply diversity if justified by simultaneity or control systems.

Are results per phase for 3‑phase supplies?

Yes. The calculator assumes single‑phase loads are evenly spread across phases and reports a per‑phase maximum demand. Three‑phase loads are included by their line current.

Why do my results differ from DNO calculators?

DN0s may enforce specific assumptions or simultaneity factors. Use their required method when applying for supply upgrades.
