resistive/reactive load banks

Resistive Reactive Load Banks

Combined resistive reactive load banks for reliable testing from 240 kW to 6.25 MVA

We provide dependable, custom-engineered resistive/reactive load banks to help you test confidently, improve reliability, and maintain performance.

Resistive/reactive load banks enable you to test equipment by replicating a lagging power factor. This is vital for complete engine and alternator tests, which purely resistive load banks can’t provide since they only test at a unity power factor.

At Aggreko, we provide resistive/reactive load bank rental across voltages from 380 V to 690 V, delivering multiple 1 kVA load steps so you can:

  • Fully test equipment with load banks offering a typical 0.8 power factor
  • Benchmark equipment performance against manufacturer expectations
  • Meet legal requirements for load testing during commissioning
  • Identify potential problems and maintenance issues sooner
