Portable Inductive Load Bank (Product Code: SLE/EPS/09) is a switchable inductive load used to apply reactive, lagging-power-factor loads to three-phase experiment circuits in power systems laboratories. Its three electrically separate inductor banks, housed in a robust steel enclosure, connect in star or delta and switch to give balanced or unbalanced loads. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM and laboratory equipment manufacturer in India, at its own factory in Ambala.

An inductive load draws current that lags the voltage, so this unit is how students create reactive power and a lagging power factor in a controlled, repeatable way. Switching inductors into each bank, they load a generator, transformer or distribution circuit and watch how current, voltage and power factor respond.
Because the three banks are electrically separate, the same load bank serves both star-connected and delta-connected experiments, and different switch settings per bank produce the unbalanced loads needed to study phase imbalance. Paired with a resistive load bank, it forms a mixed resistive-inductive load whose power factor can be stepped up or down during a practical.
The Portable Inductive Load Bank is an Ambala-made product: ScienceLab, the brand of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, is its OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and makes and assembles it at the company’s own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. It is sold factory-direct to engineering colleges, polytechnics, dealers and importers.

What is inside the Portable Inductive Load Bank?
The Portable Inductive Load Bank (SLE/EPS/09) is a robust steel enclosure containing three banks of switchable inductive loads. A set of switches brings each inductor into circuit, and safety sockets on the front panel connect the loads to experiment circuits.
Can the Portable Inductive Load Bank be connected in star or delta?
Yes. Each inductor bank in the Portable Inductive Load Bank is electrically separate, so the three banks can be connected as a star or a delta load for three-phase circuits, with balanced or unbalanced switch settings.
How are the inductors protected?
The inductors in the Portable Inductive Load Bank include a thermally operated circuit-breaker that protects the loads. If it operates during a practical, check the connected circuit and the switch settings before continuing the experiment.
Can it be combined with other load banks?
Yes. The Portable Inductive Load Bank can be used in combination with other similar load banks, such as the resistive version, to provide variable power and power factor loads for power systems experiments.
Who manufactures the Portable Inductive Load Bank?
The Portable Inductive Load Bank is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and spare-part requests are answered straight from the manufacturer.
