Voltage Regulation
• Definition: Voltage regulation (at point x)
is the percent voltage rise caused by
unloading a power system (at point x)
– Assumption 1: The original power factor at
point x is given
– Assumption 2: The original voltage is the
nominal value at point x, or a given value if
not nominal; the source voltage is fixed
– Assumption 3: Original system is at full load,
or a given value if not full load

Last equality assumes full-load voltage is

• The system inductive reactance usually
causes voltage drops under normal
loading
• If the load pf is leading or if very long
transmission lines at EHV (345 kV and up,
the line charging current may be very
large), then regulation may be negative
6
Root Cause
• Most long-duration voltage variations are
caused by too much impedance (Zth) in the
power delivery system
• The power system is too weak for the load
– voltage drops to a low value under heavy
loads (lagging pf)
– voltage rises to a high value under light loads
(more leading or less lagging pf)
7
Solutions to Improve Voltage
Regulation
• Add shunt capacitors to increase the load power
factor (not leading however) tending to decrease
the load kVA by decreasing the load kVAr
• Add static var compensation or other dynamic
reactive power compensation (same reason as
shunt capacitor addition, but better control)
• Add series capacitors to lines to cancel part of
the jXI voltage drop (long transmission lines and
(rarely) short lines with impact loads)
8
Solutions to Improve Voltage
Regulation
• Add voltage regulators to boost V under heavy
load and buck voltage under light load
• Increase the size of conductors to reduce Z

Flicker
Sources of flicker
-Load change
-Induction motor starting
-Variable power generation
Observable flicker is dependent on the following:
-Size (VA) of potential flicker-producing source
-System impedance (stiffness of utility)
-Frequency of resulting voltage fluctuations
Example of Flicker
Power system model at Ulleung Island of South Korea.
