It is basically the work the motor is doing. In your car the motor turns the crankshaft which in turn moves the car. The resistance applied by the crankshaft against the job of the motor to turn it, represents the load.

What is meant by load on a motor in eletrical engineering term?

The load on a motor can be measured in watts, and it is the mechanical torque supplied, multiplied by the speed of the shaft. When the torque is in Newton-metres and the speed is in radians/second, the mechanical power output result is in watts.

What is the difference between full load amps and running load amps?

Full load amps is the maximum rated amps that the motor should draw according to its nameplate rating. Running load amps is the actual amperage the motor is drawing at that point in time when the test is taken. Some motor loads vary depending on if the load is cyclic. The reading on this type of motor would be from no load amps to full load amps.
