Industrial Inductive Load Bank
At Sachin Electricals, we design and manufacture high-performance Inductive Load Banks engineered to simulate real-world electrical loads with precision and reliability. Our solutions help industries test, validate, and optimize power systems under true operating conditions involving reactive power.
Inductive Load Bank Solutions for Reactive Power Testing
An Inductive Load Bank is a specialized electrical testing system used to simulate reactive loads (kVAR) such as motors, transformers, compressors, and industrial machinery. Unlike purely resistive loads, inductive loads cause the current to lag behind the voltage, closely representing actual operating conditions found in industrial and utility environments. Inductive load banks are essential for testing:
- Generator performance at lagging power factors
- Voltage regulation and frequency stability
- Reactive power handling capability of power systems
Our Strength in Inductive Load bank
Most industrial loads are inductive in nature. An inductive load bank accurately replicates these conditions, ensuring realistic testing.
Inductive load banks allow generators and power systems to be tested at different lagging power factors, ensuring full compliance.
By testing under reactive loads, potential issues such as voltage drops, overheating, or instability can be detected early. which improves generator.
Inductive load banks are critical during system commissioning to verify performance before final handover.
Used widely in data centers, hospitals, power plants, and industrial facilities to ensure uninterrupted and stable power supply.
Regular testing with inductive loads enhances system life and reduces unexpected failures which ensures long term efficiency.

Frequently
Asked Question
What is an Inductive Load Bank?
An Inductive Load Bank is a testing system used to simulate reactive electrical loads (kVAR) such as motors, transformers, and industrial machinery. It helps evaluate the performance of generators and power systems under real-world operating conditions.
Why is an Inductive Load Bank required?
Most industrial loads are inductive in nature. An inductive load bank allows accurate testing of voltage regulation, power factor, frequency stability, and reactive power handling, which cannot be evaluated using only resistive loads.
When should an Inductive Load Bank be used?
Inductive load banks are commonly used during:
- Generator commissioning
- Periodic maintenance testing
- Power system upgrades
- Acceptance testing before project handover
What is the difference between a Resistive and an Inductive Load Bank?
A resistive load bank tests true power (kW), while an inductive load bank tests reactive power (kVAR). For complete and realistic testing, both are often used together to simulate actual operating conditions.
Which industries typically use Inductive Load Banks?
Inductive load banks are widely used in:
- Power plants and utilities
- Data centers
- Hospitals
- Industrial manufacturing units
- EPC and commissioning projects
Can Inductive Load Banks be customized?
Yes. At Sachin Electricals, inductive load banks can be custom-designed based on capacity, voltage, frequency, indoor or outdoor installation, and specific project requirements.
Is it safe to test generators using an Inductive Load Bank?
Absolutely. Inductive load banks are designed with advanced safety features, thermal protection, and controlled load application to ensure safe and reliable testing without risk to the generator or power system.
