Installed power loads - Characteristics
From Electrical Installation Guide
An examination of the actual apparent-power demands of different loads: a necessary preliminary step in the design of a LV installation
The examination of actual values of apparent-power required by each load enables the establishment of:
- A declared power demand which determines the contract for the supply of energy
- The rating of the MV/LV transformer, where applicable (allowing for expected increased load)
- Levels of load current at each distribution board
