Method of Computation

The document provides details on the design analyses and method of computation for branch circuit panels at the Taganito HPAL Project site in Taganito, Surigao del Norte, Philippines. It includes calculations for full load current, circuit breaker rating, cable size and ampacity, voltage drop, ground wire size, and conduit sizing for branch circuits on the second floor of Building 1, third floor of Building 1, ground floor of Building 2, and second floor of Building 2. The purpose is to determine the proper electrical equipment and components to use for the branch circuit panels based on National Electrical Code standards.
