Load Data
Option | Description |
---|---|
Load Model |
Select from Specified (user-entered) data or from SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) data. SCADA data can be imported by clicking File > Import. |
FLA |
Full load amps (rated continuous current) of the load. The point of connection load is treated as a constant kVA load model when performing power flow calculations. |
PF |
Power factor for the load. |
Scaling Factor |
Each load can be varied by applying a different scaling factor. This lets you model the actual panel or lumped load on a bus, then study different loading conditions. This allows quick “what if” studies and prevents errors that occur from data entry. |
Demand Factor |
Demand factor for the load. |
Protective Device |
The protective device information comes from the breaker located between the point of connection and the bus. |
Conductor |
The conductor information comes from the cable that joins the point of connection with the bus. |
