Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the concept of load forecasting, particularly in the context of electrical engineering. Participants seek to clarify the term and its applications, especially regarding electrical load calculations for various projects.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests more information about load forecasting, indicating a lack of familiarity with the term in the context of electrical loads.
  • Another participant suggests that load forecasting may relate to determining the size of electrical components needed for projects, such as panels and wires, based on anticipated electrical loads.
  • A participant clarifies that the original question was posted on behalf of a friend and mentions that the friend has since created a new thread for further discussion on load forecasting.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

The discussion does not reach a consensus, as participants express varying levels of understanding and familiarity with the concept of load forecasting.

Contextual Notes

There is a lack of specific definitions and examples provided, which may limit the clarity of the discussion. The relationship between load forecasting and practical applications in electrical engineering remains somewhat ambiguous.

What's the context of your question? The term "forecasting" is unfamiliar to me in the context of electrical loads. Can you post more info about the question?
 
Are you asking us about the LIne Load? Example; you are asked to do electrical work; power supply; electrical panels, and you have to forecast the load so that you know the size of the panel, size of the disconnect switch, the size of the wires. To calculate all those sizes you need to know the load (forecast it)? That is the job of an Electrician and in a case of a hotel and/or hospital construction than Consulting Engineering Firms will ask Professiona Electrical Engineer to do the Load Forecast. Could I be wrong?
 
I should say that this question was not my own question. In fact, I allowed Dan, one of my friends, to use my account for posting his question. Now he has joined and has his own account. He has started a new thread with this title “LOAD FORCASTING explanation” and has explained more about what he wants to know.

Sorry, I forgot that one’s account and email are privet things as toothbrush, hairbrush and towel are :-)
