Load factor — may refer to:* Capacity factor, the ratio of the actual output of a power plant over a period of time and its output if it had operated a full capacity of that time period * Load factor (aerodynamics), n, is the vector expressed by the ratio of… … Wikipedia
Load profile — In electrical engineering, a load profile is a graph of the variation in the electrical load versus time. A load profile will vary according to customer type (typical examples include residential, commercial and industrial), temperature and… … Wikipedia
Demand factor — In telecommunication, electronics and the electrical power industry, the term demand factor has the following meanings: 1. The ratio of (a) the maximum real power consumed by a system to (b) the maximum real power that would be consumed if the… … Wikipedia
Load bank — A load bank is a device which develops an electrical load, applies the load to an electrical power source and converts or dissipates the resultant power output of the source. The purpose of a load bank is to accurately mimic the operational or… … Wikipedia
