Thanks for the replies and welcome. I have reviewed 220.12 and it states not to calculate spaces "not adaptable for future use". On the other hand when I calculate those spaces at the 3w/sq.ft I'm not getting an answer that remotely comes up with any of the options shown.
You have to count the small appliance circuits, whether or not the question specifically calls them out. That is two circuits at 1500 VA each. You also have to include one laundry circuit at 1500 VA, but apparently that was included in the test question anyway. You would have to include the greater of the heating or air conditioning load, but if they do not give you any numbers they cannot expect you to make up your own numbers.it makes no mention of sm appliance circuits,hvac,or any other loads.
