The load factor is the average load ratio for a certain period to the peak load
occurring in that period. This research aimed to find out the average load value and
the peak load value, discover the load factor value which occurred in the household
and industrial sectors in the Musi Banyuasin region, and compare the load factor of
household to that of industrial customers. Toachieve the research goals, literature
study, data collection, and data processing we conducted. Based on the data
obtained from PT Muba Electric Power, there we were calculated several types of
customers for the load factor. In this report, we did the calculation of load factors in
the industrial and the household sector. The results of the evaluation and calculation
of load factor conducted in July 2020 indicated that the biggest load factor in the
industrial sector was at 105 600 VA customers 55.766%, and the smallest was at
53000 VA customers 2.22%.While the Bisa diganti most significant load factor in
the household sector was at 4400 VA customers 29.726%, and the smallest was at
6600 VA customers 11.14%. Based on the calculation analysis results, the load
factor on both household and industrial customers was still low. There fore, it is
necessary to add more customers in the two sectors so that the power provided by
PT MEP is not wasted and can be used efficiently and optimally.
