DESIGN CRITERIA + Line to Neutral Voltage - (system voltage divided by 1.732) + Initial Current in Amperes + Allowable "Time On" - defined as the length of time that the line-to-neutral voltage can be applied without exceeding the allowable temperature rise. Our Neutral Earthing Resistors are designed to dissipate a large amount of energy without exceeding temperature limitations recomended by IEEE Standard 32. The allowable temperature rise for the 10, 30 and 60 seconds ratings is 760 degree C. For extended time ratings ( >10 minutes) the allowable temperature rise is 610 degree C. For continuous ratings the allowable temperature rise is 385 degree C. Cisse a Rey Tee 7 LL ee PA aaa aera aes dali caibes eka APPLICATION The resistive load bank consists of a group of resistors connected in series / parallel combination designed to dissipate a specified amount of energy. These load banks are ideal for testing of AC or DC power sources with electrical loads that mimic actual working load.
