Concept
A non-continuous load refers to an electrical load that operates intermittently rather than continuously, often characterized by varying current demands over time. Understanding non-continuous loads is crucial for designing electrical systems that can accommodate peak demands without overloading circuits or causing inefficiencies.

Concept
Electrical load calculations are essential for determining the power requirements of a building or system, ensuring safety, efficiency, and compliance with electrical codes. They involve evaluating the total electrical demand, considering both continuous and non-continuous loads, to design an appropriate electrical distribution system.
