Allows you to validate the total loads on buses for selected power distribution boards or buses. The software calculates the total line current for all selected buses and displays the results for each bus that you included in the selection. You can export the list to an Excel file for checking or marking up the information conveniently.

PDB (Power Distribution Board)

Displays the name of the power distribution board with which the bus is associated.

Bus

Displays the name of the bus for which the software validates the load data.

Overload

If the total calculated line current exceeds the maximum allowable load for the bus the software displays Yes to indicate that the bus is overloaded. The maximum allowable load equals the maximum bus capacity plus the percentage overload specified for the bus.

Total Calculated Line Current (A)

The sum of the current in amperes for all the loads that are attached to the bus.

Bus Current Rating (A)

The maximum rated current that the bus is designed to carry.

Required Overload Percentage

The percentage overload allowed on the bus before the software displays a warning message.

Actual Overload Percentage

The actual percentage overload above the maximum bus capacity. If the total line current is less than or equal to the maximum bus capacity, displays a value of 0 (zero).

Required Spare Load Percentage

Specifies the percentage spare load allocated on the bus for future addition of loads.

Actual Spare Load Percentage

The percentage difference between the value of the bus current rating that you specify on the Batch Load Association dialog and the calculated line current. If the total line current is greater than or equal to the required spare load percentage, displays a value of 0 (zero).

Close

Closes the dialog .

Excel Report

Displays the data in this dialog in a Microsoft Excel file. This is useful if you want to format the layout or print out the data.
