2. Load regulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_regulation

   Load regulation is the capability to maintain a constant voltage (or current) level on the output channel of a power supply despite changes in the supply's load (such as a change in resistance value connected across the supply output).

3. Voltage regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulator

   Voltage regulator for generators. Generators, as used in power stations, ship electrical power production, or standby power systems, will have automatic voltage regulators (AVR) to stabilize their voltages as the load on the generators changes. The first AVRs for generators were electromechanical systems, but a modern AVR uses solid-state devices.

4. Line regulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_regulation

   The line regulation for an unregulated power supply is usually very high for a majority of operations, but this can be improved by using a voltage regulator. A low line regulation is always preferred. In practice, a well regulated power supply should have a line regulation of at most 0.1%. [1] In the regulator device datasheets the line ...

5. Voltage regulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulation

   The effects of this modulation on voltage magnitude and phase angle is illustrated using phasor diagrams that map V R, V S, and the resistive and inductive components of V line drop. Three power factor scenarios are shown, where (a) the line serves an inductive load so the current lags receiving end voltage, (b) the line serves a completely ...

6. Voltage control and reactive power management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_control_and...

   These devices, connected in series to the power conductors are typically used to lower the reactive power losses and to increase the amount of active power that can be transmitted through the line, with the supply of reactive power with self-regulation (the supply fortuitously increases with higher load) being the secondary consideration; [12 ...

7. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

   An electrical grid may have many types of generators and loads; generators must be controlled to maintain stable operation of the system. In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load.
