For a continuous load the circuit breaker is set 25% higher than the load current. So a 20-amp breaker is used with a continuous 16-amp load.
A continuous load is a constant load. A noncontinuous load is one that varies over time.
If you have a measured continuous load of say 80 Amps, you would want to have a panel rated at 100 A. For continuous load you want to be at 80% of rated capacity.
A load that is not really there.
By definition a continuous signal is just that continuous to have no amplitude is to mean it doesn't exists
You should not exceed 80% of the breaker rating for a continuous load. Therefore, the continuous load should not exceed 16 amps.
Discrete is something that is not continuous, or in other words. Not doing it continuous.
The definiton of static load is to load something staticly. However, the definition of a dynamic load can be either that of a large load of something or to have something of great importance be placed onto someone in such a way that it is a "load".
The NEC defines a continuous load as that which may run for three hours or more. Examples of these are: electric heat, water heaters, AC units, and even lighting circuits.
Is a load(appliance) that runs at max current for 3 hours or more at a time.
It means to put something in another thing you 'load' it
A continuous load is a constant load. A noncontinuous load is one that varies over time.
