Voltage Regulation - Electrical Power Systems

Electrical Power Systems

In electrical power systems it is a dimensionless quantity defined at the receiving end of a transmission line as:

Failed to parse (Missing texvc executable; please see math/README to configure.): Voltage Regulation(VR) = \frac{V_{nl} - V_{Rated}}{V_{Rated}} \times 100\

where Vnl is voltage at no load and VRated is voltage at full load. A smaller value of Voltage Regulation is usually beneficial.

The Voltage Regulation formula could be visualized with the following; "Consider power being delivered to a load such that the voltage at the load is the load's rated voltage VRated, if then the load disappears, the voltage at the point of the load will rise to Vnl."

Famous quotes containing the words electrical, power and/or systems:

    Few speeches which have produced an electrical effect on an audience can bear the colourless photography of a printed record.
    Archibald Philip Primrose, 5th Earl Rosebery (1847–1929)

    You are evil. But even the power of evil cannot stand against the power of faith and goodness.
    Griffin Jay, and Randall Faye. Lew Landers. Lady Jane Ainsley (Frieda Inescort)

    Before anything else, we need a new age of Enlightenment. Our present political systems must relinquish their claims on truth, justice and freedom and have to replace them with the search for truth, justice, freedom and reason.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
