Banner-chapter N.jpg

Particular types of electrical sources and loads are covered in this chapter:

  • supply sources such as generators or inverters
  • loads with special characteristics, such as induction motors, lighting circuits or LV/LV transformers

It provides technical reference on their specificities, how this impacts the electrical installation sizing, in particular how to select the related protection and control switchgear.
