Load Current in DC Shunt Generator Formulas

Load current refers to the current that is drawn by the external load connected to the generator’s output terminals.The current flows through load and returns to generator via armature winding. And is denoted by I_L. Load Current is usually measured using the Ampere for Electric Current. Note that the value of Load Current is always positive.
