A load is any device, which absorbs energy in an electrical system. Resistive loads are those where the electricity produces heat by the \u201cJoule effect\u201d and not by the effect of a movement.<\/p>\n

Thus, a load bank whose resistors have this effect will be used to ballast a generator or even other energy production equipment.<\/p>\n

What is the principle of a resistive load bank?<\/h2>\n

The resistive load bank is based on the principle of a load that absorbs energy in an electrical system. A resistor conforming to Ohm’s law (purely resistive).<\/p>\n

Think of our equipment as a device that performs work on power-generating equipment. This is then a load bank.<\/p>\n

When to use a resistive load bank?<\/h2>\n

As a priority, the resistive load bank can be used for testing, maintenance and ballasting needs. Indeed, its main function is to reproduce the real demands on critical power systems.<\/p>\n
