AC Load Banks
Hand Carried
Hand carried AC load banks in any capacity to meet your load testing needs. Power House Manufacturing has developed the best ultra-compact and light-weight hand carried AC load banks. AC load banks with capacities unmatched in the industry.
Not only are our AC load banks smaller and lighter, due to our unique resistor design. Our AC load banks easily withstand the harsh environments that can be associated with generator testing.
Power House Manufacturing can custom build any AC load bank to meet your load testing requirements.
We offer a wide range of 3 phase AC load banks and single phase AC load banks in any capacity as well as any combination of voltages to accommodate all of your testing needs. If you need to test both 3 phase AC and single phase AC power sources, we have a complete line up of multi-voltage, multi-phase AC load banks to suit your needs all in one load bank.
We have a variety of hand carried AC load banks in stock for immediate shipment.

Important Facts:
Fast acting branch circuit fuse protection for all load steps (not just main line fusing) is standard on all Power House load banks. This protects the operator and the load bank from any over current at the individual resistor level prior to a complete overload. Main line fusing offered by our competitors means that the fault current must exceed the total rating of the entire load bank before any protection is provided.
Our standard multi-voltage load banks have a 3 phase, 4 wire “wye” connection and a single phase 2 or 3 wire connection. This allows the user to easily test single phase power sources with no additional setup.
Optional features:
- Wireless data logging digital power meter
- Mating plug set
- Cable Set
- Military spec. padded carrying case w/ wheels and telescopic handle
- Custom vinyl cover
- Caster wheel kit
- Alternate Load Step Control
- Remote control panel
- Weather proof enclosure
- Auto load dump circuit with bypass
- 400 Hz, or 50/60 & 400 Hz
