Abstract
The thesis describes and discusses the methodology developed and used by the author for producing an input load data base for the Westinghouse Distribution System Planning Program (DSP), a computer simulation model for planning electrical subtransmission and distribution systems. The Public Service Company of New Mexico's electrical system in Albuquerque is first described as is the DSP model. The methodology used is then discussed: first the estimating procedures for establishing the base year load, and then the techniques used for projecting future load. Possible improvements in these methods are offered and the ultimate limitations of such a data base are discussed.
