Abstract
The control system permits limiting the electrical demand of a distribution network to a desired maximum value by regulating the temperature of one or more thermal loads with heating or cooling elements; this system includes: means for measuring the instantaneous demand of the network; means for measuring the instantaneous temperature of each of the thermal loads; means for comparing the demand of the network to the desired maximum value; means for comparing the measured temperature to the desired temperature for each of the thermal loads; and means for disconnecting or for connecting in response to the information obtained by the comparison, a fraction of the elements which is proportional to the difference between the measured temperature and the desired temperature.
