How do I calculate the diversity factor for equipment loads?

The diversity factor for equipment loads can be calculated by considering the individual pieces of equipment or as a group. For example, if you have multiple computers in a room, you can calculate the diversity factor for each computer individually or as a group. A common approach is to apply a diversity factor of 0.90 to the sum of the peak room space equipment loads. However, this factor may vary depending on the type and usage patterns of the equipment.
