FAQs
Quick Answers to Your Rental Questions at Ukana!
What is the difference between resistive, reactive and resistive/reactive load banks?
A resistive load bank applies a purely resistive electrical load to a power source, meaning the voltage and current are in phase. This simulates straight real power usage (kW) and is ideal for testing generator output and heating/cooling systems under full load.
A reactive load bank introduces inductive or capacitive elements that cause current and voltage to shift in phase (non-unity power factor). This is important when you need to replicate real-world electrical systems with motors, transformers or other inductive loads.
A resistive/reactive (or RLC) load bank combines both resistive and reactive loads. It can simulate actual load conditions more accurately by adjusting both real power (kW) and reactive power (kVAr), allowing comprehensive testing across a range of power factor scenarios.
Can load banks be rented for emergency testing?
Yes. Load banks can definitely be rented for emergency testing, for example to verify a generator or UPS system is capable of carrying critical systems during unexpected outages. Rental units are particularly valuable when you need immediate load testing support without long-term equipment ownership.
At Ukana, temporary load bank rental is available and tailored to your schedule and urgency, so you can perform emergency tests with the correct load configuration and size.
Do you offer short-term and long-term rental options?
Yes. Most professional load bank rental providers — including Ukana — offer both short-term and long-term rental contracts.
Short-term rentals are ideal for one-off tests, commissioning, emergency testing or periodic maintenance.
Long-term rentals suit extended projects, multiple test events, or when you want to free up capital by renting instead of buying.
Flexible rental terms help you match the equipment to your project timeline and budget.
What is a load bank and why do I need one?
A load bank is a device used to apply a controlled, artificial electrical load to a power source such as a generator, UPS system, transformer or power supply. By simulating real operating conditions, a load bank allows you to test whether your power system can safely and reliably deliver its rated capacity.
You need a load bank to verify performance, reliability and compliance without risking live equipment. Load bank testing is commonly used during commissioning, maintenance, acceptance testing and emergency preparedness. It helps identify problems such as insufficient capacity, voltage instability, cooling issues or control failures before they cause unplanned downtime.
Load banks are especially important in critical power applications—including data centers, hospitals, industrial facilities and energy projects—where failure is not an option. By using a load bank, you gain confidence that your power system will perform exactly as required when it matters most.
When is load bank rental the best solution?
Load bank rental is often the best choice when:
You only need temporary load testing, such as one-off commissioning, maintenance or certification.
You want to avoid the upfront cost of purchasing equipment you use infrequently.
Your project timeline doesn’t align with owning full-time equipment.
You need rapid deployment for emergency testing or troubleshooting.
You are testing multiple power sources or need different configurations over time.
Rental allows flexibility in capacity, configuration (resistive/reactive), and duration without ownership commitment.
What size load bank do I need?
Selecting the right size depends on the power (kW or kVA) of the system you want to test:
Calculate the maximum output of your generator, UPS or electrical source.
Choose a load bank with equal or greater capacity (Ukana provides from ~100 kW up to several MW and units can be linked for higher capacity).
Consider your testing goals — full-load testing requires capacity close to nameplate values, whereas partial-load testing can use smaller units.
If you’re unsure, rental providers generally offer sizing advice during the inquiry or quotation process to ensure proper match.
