    Voltage Regulator Wdg Resistance

    I have a 10kVA, 15kV Type A voltage regulator, with no accessable neutral (no SOLO) I'm pretty sure I have a test setup issue, but I am not sure why. I obtain really erratic and non-sensicial resistance readings for S1-L1, S2-L2, S3-L3. I am using a 10A test current. The ratio however is spot...

    Leading Power Factor - Voltage drop

    Thanks. But I guess my question is aimed at a more fundamental level. What is it about the "supply" of VARs that creates the voltage rise?

    Leading Power Factor - Voltage drop

    Thanks, that makes sense. Do you mind if I ask a question a bit off-topic. In the case of capacitors that also raise voltage, is this accomplished by simply reducing the net reactance, leading to a voltage rise due to less voltage drop?

    Leading Power Factor - Voltage drop

    Hi, I am hoping you can help me understand this concept. I've always known that generators operating a leading power factor lowers voltage drop and a lagging power factor increases voltage rise (as seen here...
