duty_factor_transformer_11_20kv: Duty Factor for 6.6/11kV and 20kV Transformers

In CNAIM: Common Network Asset Indices Methodology (CNAIM)

Duty Factor for 6.6/11kV and 20kV Transformers

Description

This function calculates the duty factor for 6.6/11kV and 20kV transformers depending on the maximum percentage utilisation under normal operating conditions. The duty factor is used in the deriviation of the expected life of an asset. See e.g. expected_life(). For more general information about the derivation of the duty factor see section 6.6 on page 51 in CNAIM (2021)
