  • Abstract
    THE SYSTEM LOAD of the British Columbia Power Corporation, Ltd., is concerned principally with lighting, domestic power, and small industrial power. With one exception no heavy contract load is carried. Owing to the seasonal and climatic influences the load factors are inherently low, the annual load factor ranging for several years between 45 and 48 per cent, with little immediate prospect of improvement. The peak load on this system, during the middle of December, is 100,800 kw.
