Aircraft 400 Hz Load

(OP)
Where can I find information on "typical" 400 Hz loads for commercial aircraft parked at the gate?

RE: Aircraft 400 Hz Load

From the aircraft manufacturer?

Most commercial aircraft use an AN3430 connector for 3 phase 400 Hz power. Or more than one (I believe the A380 uses 4). So you could reverse engineer the maximum ground power requirements by figuring out the capacity of this connector (I think its 250 Amps) times the number of connectors.
