    Question

    State TRUE/FALSE foe following statements:
    1. The demand factor is always greater than 1.
    2. The diversity factor is always less than 1.

    A.

    True, True

    B.

    False, False

    C.

    True, False

    D.

    False, True

    Correct option is B


    Explanation:
    Demand Factor: The demand factor is the ratio of the maximum demand of a system to the total connected load. It is always less than or equal to 1 because the maximum demand is usually less than the total connected load. Therefore, Statement 1 is False.
    Diversity Factor: The diversity factor is the ratio of the sum of individual maximum demands to the maximum demand of the entire system. It is always greater than or equal to 1 because individual demands usually do not peak at the same time. Therefore, Statement 2 is False.
