Hello
Why are all power equipment most effecient when they are running at full load?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Is it also to do with for example a motor would be least effecient when starting due to high turning force (Torque) required to start the motor and once its running with momentum the Torque would reduce and hence imrovement in effeciency. However its limited to the Power Factor of the motor.

Besides to the issue of design, the effiecency by definition equals (Pout + Ploss)/Pout; while P loss is approximatly constatnt and indpendent of load, the factor of effiency will increas as Pout increases.
