noninteractive mode

A mode of operation that usually involves a command file (an EDIT file that contains a series of

commands). Contrast with interactive mode.

nonlinear load

Electrical load for which the instantaneous current is not proportional to the instantaneous voltage.

Consequently, the local impedance varies with the voltage.

nonsensitive command

A command that can be issued by any user or program that is allowed access to a subsystem—that

is, a command on which the subsystem imposes no further security restrictions. For Subsystem

Control Facility (SCF), nonsensitive commands are those that cannot change the state or configuration

of objects; most of them are information commands. Contrast with sensitive command.
