Abstract
This chapter discusses electric energy that is not delivered to the consumer by the power-supply utility, but it is the consumer himself who takes the power which he needs from the supply utility. The connection of several supply systems leads to improved load conditions, for the more extensive a network is, the more varied are the ways of living and the climatic conditions; furthermore, fluctuations of the daily load curve are not as strong as in a small supply system. The power-supply utilities endeavor to produce and supply power not only in a reliable, but also in an economic and efficient manner. An important influence on the load curve is exerted by the electric space heating for it leads to a considerable consumption of electric power. The characteristics of the power demand and the load pattern are a part of the basic factors required for the scheduling of power supply.
