Load limiting example: 

The load limit value for the customer is set at 5kW. When the  customer 

exceeds the threshold value in the first instance power supply is cut. 

Customer reduces load and power can be reconnected. When the 

customer exceeds the value in the second instance, the customer again 

has to reduce household load to reconnect power.
