Question

difference between a load and a control? ..there is no difference, loads use power, controls use power or loads are the power

Answer 1

Second option, 'loads use power' is the correct answer.

Explanation -

The main differences between load and control are as follows -

Load	Control
A load can be a light, heater or motor	It is a switch that control the operation of a unit.
It uses electrical energy to do work.	There are two types of switches - close-on-rise and open-on-rise
When electric current passes through a load, it creates a voltage drop.	The examples of control are thermostate, humidstate, flow switches and float switches.
An electrical path that does not contain a load is know as short circuit.	It also requires energy to control the load.

Hence, the second option is the correct answer.
