The value of the Demand Factor is – Power Generation MCQ#59

The value of the Demand Factor is generally:

  1. Less than 1
  2. Equal to 1
  3. More than 1
  4. None of these

Correct answer: The value of the Demand Factor is less than 1.

The demand factor is mathematically defined as the ratio of maximum demand and connected load.

Demand Factor = Maximum demand/Connected

Since the maximum demand is always smaller than the connected load in practical cases, the value of the demand factor is always less than 1.
