Panel Schedules and Load Classifications

[Anonymous]

I have elecrrical panels that are being fed from other panels.  The demand factors are all set to power for panels.  The loads show up fine in the top of the schedual but down where the load classifications and demand loads are it shows 0VA and 0% demand factor. (see attached)  Panels are the only thing on the "Power" demand factor.  What the heck am I missing???

Do any of the loads on the downstream panels (A1B and A1C) use the Power load classification?  If so, they should show up in the panel schedule for A1A as you said.  But the panel itself doesn't have its own load and shouldn't show up in the panel schedule.  If the panel is the only item assigned to the Power load classification, Power shouldn't appear in the list.  If this is the case, Power may be appearing due to an upgrade bug that existed in the 2011 release. 

Hope this helps,

Eric

Thanks!  That was it.  My "no load" junction boxes were assigned to the power classification, thus no load.

I love this program but sometimes its the little things that kill me!

Thanks again.
