What We Do
High-Precision Motor Power Sensors for Process Manufacturing Industries
Since 1984, Load Controls has helped manufacturers improve equipment reliability through true motor power monitoring. By measuring the actual power consumed by an electric motor, not just current; we provide accurate insights into machine performance, enabling early issue detection, improved process visibility, and greater operational efficiency.
Our technology gives operators a deeper understanding of motor-driven systems by revealing changes in load that traditional current monitoring may miss. This allows industrial facilities to reduce downtime, optimize production, and make informed maintenance decisions before failures occur.
Our Vision
We believe every motor-driven process should be visible, measurable, and optimized. Our vision is to empower manufacturers with precise motor power monitoring solutions that improve process transparency, enhance operational efficiency, and support safer, more reliable industrial systems.

Since our founding in 1984, Load Controls has pioneered True Power motor sensing.
Why True Power Monitoring
Matters
Unlike simple current (ampere) sensing, monitoring true (active) power directly measures the actual work being performed by equipment. It accounts for both current and voltage (and power factor), giving a linear, accurate indication of motor or machine load. Since utilities bill in kW·h (energy) not amps, true power monitoring shows real energy use and cost.
In fact, “a power supplier does not bill for current or kVA but for wattage consumed”. By contrast, amperes-only monitoring can only detect extreme overloads or faults; it won’t flag gradual inefficiencies or underloads that waste energy and money.
