Resistive Load Bank
Product Code : SCL-PLE-11822
Quick Answer: The Resistive Load Bank is a purely resistive (unity power factor) test load that turns electrical power into heat through switched resistive elements cooled by built-in fans, for testing generators, power sources and battery discharge, with digital meters for voltage, current and power.

Key Features
- Purely resistive load at unity power factor.
- Load switched in steps for incremental adjustment.
- Forced-air cooling by integrated fans.
- Digital meters for voltage (V), current (A) and power (kW).
- Emergency stop, over-temperature cutout and short-circuit protection.
Technical Specifications
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Load type | Purely resistive, unity power factor |
| Load control | Switched steps |
| Cooling | Forced air, integrated fans |

How It Is Used
The generator, supply or battery under test is connected and load steps are switched in one by one while voltage, current and power are recorded. The results show how the source’s voltage holds up as load increases, or how a battery discharges over time, in electrical engineering practicals.
