For example, this can be connected to a power transducer with a 4 to
20 mA output, and configured so that 4 to 20 mA corresponds to 0 to
100 % of the heavy consumer nominal load. if the heavy consumer
nominal load is 500 kW, but the heavy consumer is only using 200
kW, the power transducer output is 4 mA + (200 kW / 500 kW × 16
mA) = 10.4 mA.
Alternatively, the analogue input may be configured for another type of
input, or another input range.
*Note: By default [Heavy consumer #] is HC #, where # represents the
System ID
. [Heavy consumer #] can be replaced with the
Controller label
entered in the single line diagram for the heavy consumer.

The controller outputs the actual heavy consumer load, as
a percentage of the heavy consumer nominal load. For this
to work, you must configure an analogue input with

The controller outputs the actual heavy consumer load. For
this to work, you must configure an analogue input with

Parameters
The parameters are only visible in the controller to which the heavy consumer is assigned. By default [Heavy consumer #] is HC #,
where # represents the
System ID
. [Heavy consumer #] can be replaced with the
Controller label
entered in the single line diagram
for the heavy consumer.
Configure these parameters under
Configure > Parameters > Heavy consumers > [Heavy consumer #] > Nominal settings
,
where # is 1 to 4.
