A: The power company must have trouble at the switch-yard to do that like a short or extreme loading. If there is a fault power management will know immediately because snitches will open and stay open. the operator will manually energize those switches 3 times to see if the fault can be cleared if not a crew will be sent to fix the problem. Sometimes some testing is necessary to find the problem so be patient time with no power means a lot of lost revenues mega $$

What is a Filko voltage regulator type VRD-444HD for?

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.


What causes voltage on 1999 Saturn sl2 to go from 12.2V to 14V at random times?

The cause is the voltage regulator within the alternator (working normal). When the voltage higher it is charging the battery like after you start your car or have the headlights and wipers on. The voltage regulator keeps your battery charged up. In order to charge the battery, voltage must be higher than battery voltage.


What cause excessive ripple voltage from a power supply.?

I think the cause of ripple voltage would be from a bad ground or capacitve voltage.

Can an alternator short out for years And have problems for periods at a time for a matter of 3 years or so?

An alternator cannot "short" out for years or even minutes. The definition of a short is a wire or circuit touching ground to cause a fuse to blow. The circuit is too "short" for the current to flow through the proper load and back to the battery. The voltage regulator in a alternator can act up from time to time and cause improper charging from the alternator. Or a component of the alternator can go bad and cause a charging system problem intermittently. Your question needs to be explained better to give a better answer.

Can a voltage regulator cause starting problems?

yes


Why is the voltage regulator overcharging the battery in a 1990 Ford econoline?

A bad voltage regulator can cause an overcharging condition. Check the wires going to the regulator for corrosion and make sure the regulator has a good ground.


What would cause the battery to overcharge?

Defective voltage regulator.


Can the voltage regulator stop the motor from firing on a 1990 dodge 250 van?

No, the voltage regulator determines the alternators output voltage. That's all it does. If the regulator fails the battery level can drop to the point that there will not be sufficient charge to start the engine, but the regulator will not directly cause the engine to not run.

What cause the regulator burnt?

If a voltage regulator ot overcvharged & burned either it itself is bad or another component (alternator) caused it

Have the alterntor and voltage regulator checked.
