Regulator Theory Purpose
Why is voltage regulation needed?
Power quality criteria requires a constant voltage
despite variations in load current
Load current variations are due to:
New loads
Load profiles Daily and Seasonal
LOAD CURRENT VS TIME OF DAY

! Warning!
Installing or removing the regulator with the tap changer
off neutral will short circuit part of the series winding!
Before bypassing, the regulator must be in neutral.
