What is power regulator?

A power regulator or a voltage regulator generates a fixed output voltage of a preset magnitude that remains constant regardless of changes to its input voltage or load conditions.


Why in slip test the machine voltage reduced?

The low slip test is used to determine the D and Q axis impedance of salient pole machines. The machine terminals are short circuited, each phase voltage and current are measured. Since the terminals are short circuited, machine voltage must be reduced to prevent excessive output currents that would damage the machine.


What is the special properties of a diode?

in the negative biasing it gives the constant voltage irrespective of limited current.......the voltage it provides in the negative biasing is known as 'zener voltage' due to this property zener voltage is used as voltage regulator........voltage regulator is a circuit which gives constant output even the input is changing.

Can measure Automatic Voltage Regulator voltage of a generator by dc meter?

No, you cannot accurately measure the output voltage of an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) using a DC meter, as the AVR typically regulates AC voltage for the generator. A DC meter is designed for measuring direct current voltage, while the voltage output from a generator is usually alternating current (AC). To measure the AC voltage effectively, you would need an AC voltmeter or a multimeter set to the AC voltage setting.

What will be the output voltage if reference voltage is short circuited in a series voltage regulator?

In theory it will be zero, in real life it's 0,003-0,005volts. Because the rule of ohm says: U = I * R. Shorted means that R = (almost) 0 so U will be close to zero too.


How does a series regulator maintain the output voltage at a constant level?

A series regulator maintains output voltage by adjusting its resistance to compensate for changes in input voltage or load current. It compares the output voltage to a reference voltage and regulates the voltage by adjusting the series pass device to ensure the output remains constant. This feedback loop continuously monitors and adjusts the output voltage, providing a stable output despite variations in input or load.


What is the difference of a fixed regulator from an adjustable regulator?

A fixed voltage regulator outputs only one specific voltage. An adjustable voltage regulator can be adjusted to output any voltage from the range it was designed for by changing the output resistors.


How does an alternator know how much voltage output?

Output of the alternator is controlled by the voltage regulator.


What does a dodge voltage regulator do?

It controlls the output voltage of the alternator.


How does a voltage regulator regulate the voltage output of an ac generator?

Generator output is controlled by voltage feedback to the voltage regulator which senses voltage drop or rise and regulates the current being sent to the armature. This rise and fall of the armature current governs the generators output voltage.


What is output short circuit current?

The output short circuit current is the solar cell's current when the voltage is zero, or when it, is short circuited.


What is the Function of an alternator regulator?

It controls the output voltage.


What is power regulator?

A power regulator or a voltage regulator generates a fixed output voltage of a preset magnitude that remains constant regardless of changes to its input voltage or load conditions.


Can a voltage regulator put out to few volts?

Yes, a voltage regulator can output a voltage that is too low if it is not properly selected for the application. Factors such as incorrect input voltage, component failure, or design flaws can lead to insufficient output voltage. Additionally, if the load requirements exceed the regulator's capacity, it may also result in a lower output voltage. It's important to ensure the regulator's specifications match the intended application to avoid such issues.


What happens when a regulator doesn't get enough volts?

A regulator loses some voltage in regulating its output, known as the dropout voltage. So the input voltage must be at least the output volts plus the dropout volts. If the input voltage is too low, the output will drop out of regulation.


What is an 7805 regulator?

7805is a voltage regulator integrated circuit. It is a member of 78xx series of fixed linear voltage regulator ICs. The voltage source in a circuit may have fluctuations and would not give the fixed voltage output. The voltage regulator IC maintains the output voltage at a constant value. The xx in 78xx indicates the fixed output voltage it is designed to provide. 7805 provides +5V regulated power supply. Capacitors of suitable values can be connected at input and output pins depending upon the respective voltage levels.Pin Diagram:Pin Description:Pin NoFunctionName1Input voltage (5V-18V)Input2Ground (0V)Ground3Regulated output; 5V (4.8V-5.2V)Output
