Description:Proportion of region load that occurs in the zone

Zone Load Participation Factor is the proportion of load that occurs in the zone. The application of this property depends on where the load property is defined:

If you define Region Load then the Nodes in the Zone will calculate Load as:

Load = Region Load × Region Load Scalar × Load Participation Factor × Node Load Participation Factor

Otherwise if you define Zone Load then the Nodes in the Zone will calculate Load as:

Load = Zone Load × Zone Load Scalar × Load Participation Factor × Node Load Participation Factor
