  • Abstract
    DIVERSITY is defined by the Statistical Committee of the Edison Electric Institute1 ¿as that quality or characteristic by which individual maximum demands occur at different times. There is hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and annual diversity.¿ Obviously, if there were no diversity between appliances, homes, farms, machines, and manufacturing plants the electrical industry would be required to have considerably more capacity than at present.
