  • Demand Factor = Maximum demand of a system / Total connected load on the system
  • Demand factor is always less than one. 
  • Demand Factor is always change with the time to time or hours to hours of use and it will not constant.
  • The connected load is always known so it will be easy to calculate the maximum demand if the demand factor for a certain supply is known at different time intervals and seasons.
  • The lower the demand factor, the less system capacity required to serve the connected load.
