Load shedding
Load shedding is used to reduce the contractual
demand of the mains supply and to avoid tripping in
the event of strong current draws. Load shedding starts
as soon as the total current draw attempts to exceed
the subscribed value.
Load shedding is cascade or cascade-cyclic (cascadocy-
clique
®
- registered trademark of DELTA DORE). In the
event of overpower, GP8 RADIO PLC sheds load on all
the channels then gradually brings them back into
operation.
Cascade load shedding
According to the power overload, the unit restores
load to the channels in a set order:
• Channel 1
• Then channel 1 + channel 2,
• Then channel 1 + channel 2 + channel 3, etc.
DHW (hot water tank) load is shed as a last resort,
when excess demand makes it necessary.
Cascade-cyclic (cascadocyclique

) load shedding
(registered trademark of Delta Dore)
Load shedding is performed by rotation on the 8
channels (cyclic) and adjusts the number of channels
on which to shed load depending on the overpower
(cascade).
Cascade-cyclic (cascadocyclique
®
) load shedding
enables better load shedding distribution.
