What does no power loading mean?

“Power loading”, can cause damage to launch ramps that may not be visible from the surface of the water. “Power loading” is a term used to describe using the motor to load and unload the boat onto and off the trailer.

Should you power load a boat?

Propeller wash can erode the sediment just beyond the ramp surface, creating a large hole. The eroded sediment is deposited behind the propeller, creating a mound. Trailer tires can get stuck in these holes, and boats can run aground on the mound.

What is power launching?

Power loading is what it’s called when you use the boat motor to load and unload a boat onto and off a trailer. Power loading can damage your boat, motor and trailer, as well as the launch ramp and lakebed.

What is power loading a boat on a trailer?

Power loading is when a boater remains in their boat and keeps the motor trim low to “power” the boat onto the trailer, vs. using a bow line and the boarding dock to “walk and guide” the boat onto the trailer. Power loading may be faster, but it’s costly and impacts everyone who uses the boat ramp.

What is aircraft power loading?

The power loading of the aircraft is maximum gross weight divided by the chosen rated power. Note that a low power loading value corresponds to an aircraft with a more powerful engine and/or a lower gross weight. Low power loading means better performance.

What is the problem with using your boat engine to drive it onto a trailer?

Using the boat’s engine to load onto the trailer is dangerous to your equipment and the people around the loading area. It also erodes the material at the end of the ramp which leads to its deterioration. Power-loading also upsets the no-wake zone surrounding the loading and unloading ramp areas.

What is power launching and coupling?

: Power emitted from the light source The launching and coupling efficiency depends on the type of fiber that is attached to the source and on the coupling process. The optical power that can couple into a fiber depends on the radiance or brightness which is given through a diode drive current.

What is power loading motherboard?

GIGABYTE added the BIOS feature “Power Loading” in Power Management settings which enables the dummy load to prevent the self-protection from triggering shutdown when the power supply is at low load.

Should I enable power loading BIOS?

Power loading allows the board to force a dummy load on to the PSU when its in a low power state to prevent the PSU from shutting off through its low load protection. You shouldn’t need to enable this unless your PSU is randomly shutting off.
