Load Load Participation Factor is the proportion of Company Load that occurs at a node. Let's say that a company (Company_1) serves three customers Load_1, Load_2, and Load_3 at nodes Node_1, Node_2, and Node_3, respectively. Let the total load served by the company be equal to 100 MW and Load_1, Load_2, Load_3 be 30 MW, 20 MW, and 50 MW, respectively.

The following example shows how to input the above data using Company and Load.
