Answer / er. tarun joshi
avr is an important component of an alternator or a
synhronous generator , normally with an alternator 2 more
generators are coupled on the same shaft , 1 is dc gen. or
dynamo & other is pmg or permanent magnet gen. , dynamo
provides supply to the rotor field windings of the main
alternator & the field windings of dynamo are excited by an
avr which maitains a constant current-frquency-voltage , in
the suply to dynamo field winding , through suitable solid
state devices , the avr gets it input supply from pmg &
then process it accordingly , thus overall an avr maintains
the output voltage of an alternator by regulating the field
excitation current , & thus regulating the reactive power.

Answer / satish babu
AS teh name itself explains it regulates to the ref.
voltage,
a) In case of generator the Terminal Voltage is ref. & its
o/p is excitation voltage thereby regulating TV
b) In case of transformer the PT input is the ref. & Tap
changer is continuosly operated until the PT input is
regularised. In Both these cases AVR are used,

Answer / d.k.mathur
This is a Controller for automatic operation of OLTC(on
load tap changer) for a Power Transformer as per pre
settings of Higher & Lower Voltage Limits.
This Controller switches OF & ON the OLTC for keeping
output voltage of transformer as per set limit and works
contineously.

Answer / j.sandeep soni
Basically this is a automatic controller or mean to say
that a automatic controlling switch mainly used for control
the voltage of any source, load or any electrical network.
Its main uses are automatic operation of OLTC (on load tap
changer) for a Power Transformer, to regulate the
excitation voltage in generator, temp control of electrical
furnace etc.

why resistive load has unity power factor,inductive load lagging and capacitive load leading power factor?
my N-P 230 VAC at 3 wires but i haven't any voltages at phase to phase whither my supply is 3 phase, why i haven't received these line to line voltages ?
What is disadvanage if power factor goes to in leading..?
