2. In the Load Classifications dialog, specify the load classification type, using one of the following methods:
   • From the left pane, select an existing type.
   • Click to add a new load classification type.

   • Click to rename a load classification selected from the list.

4. Specify the demand factor to assign to the load classification. Select a type from the drop-down or click to access the Demand Factors dialog.

   In the Demand Factors dialog, create a demand factor type. Then click OK.
