Abstract :
Feeder voltage regulators when properly applied will permit the optimum in economical design of power supply systems. The system designer must recognize definite relationships between the available range of regulators and the required voltage variations imposed by voltage drops in the subtransmission system, substation transformers, distribution feeders, and distribution system beyond the feedpoint. Since the effective range of regulators is reduced by inaccuracies in their control equipment, it appears justifiable to specify regulators with a total error of ¿ 1 per cent.
