Hi,
I am having problems finding the loads for office equipment, motors and air compressors. In the office equipment loads and profile page, it asks for office Eq (w/sqft) for the office, corridor, ect. Am I supposed to be able to calculate this from building plans or is there a standard value I should be using?
Thanks,
Brian
Hi Brian,
It is possible to calculate it by counting workstations and finding some reasonable values online for the office equipment. ASHRAE also publishes some values you can use in the Handbook and in the pocket guide.
