When running batch load association and calculating electrical consumption for all the feeders, Smart Electrical uses the same algorithm as the bus loading calculation. Note that all the values for the electrical consumption in batch load association are consumed and compensated for their coincidence factors whether for individual loads or the current bus as set in the preferences.
Also, the software calculates line current and power factors at run and peak conditions using consumed values.
Smart Electrical calculates electrical consumption for a selected bus, all the rolled-up buses, and the loads associated with that bus.
The software takes into account any existing equipment that is connected in parallel.
The software makes all the calculations based on the phase filter in the batch load association.
As with bus load calculations, Smart Electrical stores the calculated electrical consumption results in the database.
