feeder makes the actual maximum load on the
the ratio of the sum of the individual maximum
demands of various subsystems within a system to
feeder less than the sum of the transformer loads.

1.
Transformer I demand
- (User(A + B)demands) / (User diversity factor)
- [(A + B) / 1.45] - User loads / (1.45)
2.
Feeder 1 demand
- (Transformer I + II demands) / (Transformer diversity factor)
- ([(A + B) / 1.45] + [(C + D) / 1.451) / 1.35 - User loads /(1.95)
3.
Substation X demand
- (Feeder 1 + 2 demands) / (Feeder diversity factor)
- ([(Veer loads) /1.95] / 1.15) - User loads / (2.24)

Generating plant demand - (Substation X + Y demands) /(Substation diversity factor)
- ([(User loads) /(2.24] / 1.10) - User loads /(2.46)
