Abstract :
Since World War II serious plant shortage in Britain has necessitated load shedding during the winter peak periods. Load reductions were effected by reducing frequency and voltage and on occasions by disconnecting some supplies. This report summarizes the experience of operation at low frequency in Britain and indicates its effect on demand.
