2. Electrical load - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_load

   Load affects the performance of circuits with respect to output voltages or currents, such as in sensors, voltage sources, and amplifiers. Mains power outlets provide an easy example: they supply power at constant voltage, with electrical appliances connected to the power circuit collectively making up the load.

3. Load profile - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_Profile

   In a power system, a load curve or load profile is a chart illustrating the variation in demand/electrical load over a specific time. Generation companies use this information to plan how much power they will need to generate at any given time. A load duration curve is similar to a load curve. The information is the same but is presented in a ...

   Control of small electromagnetic loads with holding current ≤ 0.2 A; e.g. contactor relays 60947-5-2 A: Protection of circuits, with no rated short-time withstand current: 60947-3 B: Protection of circuits, with a rated short-time withstand current: 60947-3 DC-1: Non Inductive or slightly inductive loads, resistance furnaces, heaters: 60947-4 ...

5. Standby power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standby_power

   Standby power, also called vampire power [1], vampire draw, phantom load, ghost load, or leaking electricity, refers to how electronic and electrical appliances consume electric power. At the same time, they are switched off (but are designed to draw some power) or in standby mode. It only occurs because some devices claim to be "switched off ...

6. European Union energy label - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_energy_label

   the cooling output at full load in kW; the energy efficiency ratio in cooling mode at full load; the appliance type (cooling only, cooling/heating) the cooling mode (air- or water-cooled) the noise rating in dB (where applicable) Labels for air conditioners with heating capability also contain: the heat output at full load in kW

7. Harmonics (electrical power) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonics_(electrical_power)

   When a linear time-invariant electrical load is connected to the system, it draws a sinusoidal current at the same frequency as the voltage, although not always in phase with the voltage). [1]: 2 A compact fluorescent lamp is one example of an electrical load with a non-linear characteristic, due to the rectifier circuit it uses. The current ...

9. Load factor (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_factor_(electrical)

   In electrical engineering the load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specified time period. [1] It is a measure of the utilization rate, or efficiency of electrical energy usage; a high load factor indicates that load is using the electric system more efficiently, whereas consumers or generators that underutilize the electric distribution will have a low load ...
