load calculation
(OP)
I am doing the load calculation for the whole plant. I am wondering how I should consider the transformer load with regard to the load list. Should I consider the actual load consumption or just the full load of transformer?
i am still new in North America. what is common practice here ?
Thank you in advance.

RE: load calculation
The NEC has a fairly elaborate set of load calculation guidelines that form a "legal" requirement for feeder sizing.

If you're looking for power consumption (ie energy usage for utility estimating), you should consider the real load, suitably diversified.
