    An electrical drawing is a type of technical drawing that shows information about power, lighting, and communication for an engineering or architectural project.Any electrical working drawing consists of "lines, symbols, dimensions, and notations to accurately convey an engineering's design to the workers, who install the electrical system on the job".

  9. Electrical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_load

    An electrical load is an electrical component or portion of a circuit that consumes (active) electric power, [1] [2] such as electrical appliances and lights inside the home. The term may also refer to the power consumed by a circuit. This is opposed to a power supply source, such as a battery or generator, which provides power. [2]
