Function description of the voltage regulation
The TAPCON® serves to keep constant the output voltage of a transformer
with an on-load tap-changer.
The TAPCON® compares the transformer's measured voltage (V
actual
) with a
defined reference voltage (V
desired
). The difference between V
actual
and V
desired
is the control deviation (dV).
The TAPCON® parameters can be optimally adjusted to the line voltage re-
sponse to achieve a balanced control response with a small number of tap-
change operations.
The following diagram shows an overview of voltage regulation.
