Abstract :
SINCE FORECASTING OF LOADS is necessarily an inexact science, the advantages of using as many different series of data as may be available are evident. By this process, unreasonable extensions of one set of components may become evident when a parallel set of factors produces a different result. It has also been found very helpful to secure the benefit of group opinion. If the individuals in such a group are equally conversant with the facts, greater objectivity is achieved by discussion which produces agreement rather than mere averaging of preconceived opinions. Such a group should include representatives from operating, sales, and staff organizations.
