Concept

The diversity factor is given by:

\(Diversity \space factor={ Sum \space of \space \space individual \space maximum \space demands ​ \over Maximum \space demand \space of \space the \space system}\)

Calculation

Given, Number of apartments = 15

Peak demand per apartment = 8 kW

System maximum demand = 60 kW

Sum of individual demands = 15 × 8 = 120 kW

\(Diversity \space factor={120\over 60}=2\)
