Abstract :
In this paper the load characteristics of 29 domestic electric space heating installations in Detroit during the 1952¿1953 heating season are given. The theoretical undercapacity of most of these installations are pointed out as well as the ineffectiveness of using the measurement of kilowatt-hours (kw-hr) per degree day per 1,000 cubic feet of heated space when comparing different houses.
