Load case data is stored in the geodatabase in the Transformer_Load_ElecSolver table. This table is included in the sample geodatabase available with ArcFM Solution as a separate zip file. You may export this table from the sample data and import it into your geodatabase. You may also create the appropriate table in your geodatabase. Below are the required fields that appear in these tables and their data types. The field names must be created exactly as shown below.
If you choose to retrieve load case data from another source, a load table is not necessary in the geodatabase.
For each load, the following attributes are required. The values for loads must conform to the domain values defined in the SynerGEE documentation. Note: Power factor percentages must be entered as whole numbers rather than decimal numbers.

Rather than assigning loads directly, the Implementation can assign connected kVA for a device or conductor. After assigning connected kVAs, the Implementation can establish loads across the feeder using load allocation.
