A voltage regulator is just as it says. It regulates the voltage that the alternator in your vehicle puts out. Too much voltage and you'll overamp your wiring, and too little can cause parts not to function properly.

The dropper diode voltage regulator is a type of voltage regulator. It is comprised of a single diode that serves as the voltage regulating device.
the voltage regulator is located inside of the alternator ?Type your answer here...
A mercury battery will provide constant voltage. A voltage regulator circuit will also.
The voltage regulator is attached to the back of the alternator with 4 torx screws for the 1991-1995 models non-integral type.
The voltage regulator is locate in one of two places. ***The voltage regulator is located in the alternator if you have an IAR type alternator*** ***The external voltage regulator (for the EVR-type alternators) is located on the driver's side wall, right next to the battery. It's much easier to see and/or remove if you remove the battery first. It has "Motorcraft" in raised lettering across the front*** I just had to remove mine.
The device that increases or decreases the voltage impressed across a power line is known as a voltage regulator. A voltage regulator is a type of transformer where the primary and secondary turns ratio are fairly close; one (primary or secondary) often has a tap changing ability to add or remove several windings, allowing more dynamic control of voltage.
Yes ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * The voltage regulators are in the back of the alternators on a 1997 Ford Ranger but they can be changed separately according to fordparts.com *
A battery charger is a DC voltage source followed by some kind of regulator that controls the current flowing into the battery. Depending on the type of battery, this regulator might be simple, based on current and/or voltage, or it might be complex, based on voltage slope. A transformer rectifier is simply one of the part of the DC voltage source.
Resistance type Regulator uses Resistance & a selector switch to control the voltage. Actually in resistance type regulator the voltage control is done by voltage drop in resitance (converted into heat energy), which causes energy loss/wastage at lower speeds. Whereas Electronic Regulators uses Triac or SCR based circuit and controls the firing pulse to reduce the output voltage. Here power loss is less at low speed in comparision to resitance type regulator. Only disadvantage in local or cheaper Electonic regulators that at low speed Harmonic occurs which causes humming & heating up of Fan. Now a days Energy saver electronic regulators are also available which do not causes radio interference or haronics.
Almost all GM vehicles come with an altinator that has a "built in" voltage regulator. Unless you are familiar with rebuilding GM type altinators(sp) I would just consider having it tested to determine if it's truly bad or possibly another issue.
zener diode is a special type of pn junction diode that work in breakdown region . There are two types of brekdowns in zener i.e avlanche breakdown and zener breakdown depending on the doping concentration. A zener diode in an on state can be considered as a voltage source ,equal to its zener voltage n hence act as an voltage regulator
