A Load Current (A) is the current required by an electrical device. The Load Current can be defined as 1) Full load current: the maximum current that an electrical machine can operate; 2) Rated Current: the current rated on the nameplate of an electrical machine; 3) Nominal Current: is generally mentioned in the specification documents that is normally the same value as the rated one; 4) No-Load Current: the value of the current required just to turn the motor shaft with nothing connected.
