This article considers the utilization of known or predicted peak demand data in the development of operating procedures and in the planning of new facilities by the following three analytic methods: computation by a trained engineer or technician applying the method of successive corrections developed by Hardy Cross (hand method); computation by digital computer applying the method of successive corrections developed by Cross (computer method); and, measurement of the current and voltage in an analogous electrical network, using a network analyzer (analog method).
