Research on Load Characteristic of Electrothermal Film Heating Community

In this paper, a case study of an electrothermal film heating community in Tianjin is carried out, in which the winter load characteristic and electricity use law are analyzed. In this community, every household installs two watt-hour meters, one of which is only used to measure the electrothermal heating power, so the interference factors are eliminated. The main factors influencing the residents’ power consumption are summarized, and a method for estimating the thermal load of the residents is given. The conclusions can provide important reference to generalize the electric heating technology.
