Electrical load management & load shedding.
Load management helps match new equipment to the electrical system you have. We review the existing loads, your future plans and the right control options before recommending work.
What is load shedding?
A practical way to manage competing loads.
When several large devices could run at once, controls can delay or temporarily pause a lower-priority load based on the design. The right approach depends on a load calculation, equipment compatibility and how the property operates.
ILLUSTRATIVE PRIORITY PLAN
01Keep essential loads available
02Coordinate large equipment
03Pause flexible loads when needed
Final design is property and equipment specific.Where it can help
Plan capacity with more options.
Prioritize during an outage
Choose which loads matter most and whether selected equipment should wait while a generator is carrying essential circuits.
Coordinate future loads
Consider heat pumps, electric heat, cooking, laundry and other planned equipment as one electrical picture.
How we approach it
Understand the loads before selecting controls.
01Existing service
Review accessible equipment and present loads.
02Future demand
Identify EV, heating, backup or other planned equipment.
03Design options
Discuss a load calculation, listed controls or an upgrade.
The sequence is conceptual. A final design depends on the property, listed equipment and applicable requirements.

Adding equipment starts with a capacity decision.
Your available capacity is reviewed alongside the equipment you want to add.
