What is the total cooking equipment demand on the main service entrance for a SFD that has one 2.1 KW cooktop, one 4.9 KW wall oven and one 4.8 KW oven? I have the answer but I do not know how to correctly calculate it by the 2005 NEC.

thanks, Ed
 
How about telling us what you have tried to do with this problem. What code articles did you look up, what steps did you take to try to calculate an answer, and what (apparently wrong) answer did you get when you tried to do it yourself.
 
2.1kw @ 80% Per col. a = 1.68 kw
4.8kw + 4.9 kw = 9.70@65% per col B = 6.30 kw
Total 7.98kw

This is based on 220.55 note 3. let me know if this won't work.
 
Jomaul, your answer to my problem is correct. My mistake was that I kept adding all three appliances together for one total load.

thanks for your help, Ed
