Automatic Voltage Regulators Every product utilizing a DC or AC source is designed with a voltage regulator. Without them, many electronic types of equipment could be damaged when the source of power is not compatible with the needed voltage of equipment. Conversely, all of us receiving power from electric facility source will receive the nominal voltage level of 120V for instance. However, within the day, there could be voltage fluctuation due to various factors. One could be due to load factor on local transmission and distribution system, location on the local distribution line, seasonal variations in total system voltage levels, nearness to utility voltage regulating equipment and closeness to large electricity consumers. Oftentimes, on weekdays and when there is high peak of electricity demands, voltage level is at its lowest and at its highest during nighttime and weekends. Commonly, there is around 3 to 5% voltage drop of electricity from the power source to the facility w Less
