Voltage Regulator
Variation of voltage can have detrimental effects on Utilities and their customers. With over 40 years of experience General Electric Voltage Regulators have been designed with reliability and ease of use in mind. GE Voltage Regulators ensure that your customers receive consistent voltage and your overall total cost of ownership over the life of the product is optimized.

 

Voltage regulators will serve as a key product in Volt/VAR control, stabilizing and flattening feeder voltages thereby reducing losses and ultimately money spent on fuel GE Voltage Regulators will integrate seamlessly into your optimization and control strategy.

 

GE Voltage Regulators have a strong set of standard design features for common applications as well as a great lineup of optional features for special situations.

 

GE’s voltage regulators have numerous controller options, and will feature SmartGrid technology making the GE voltage regulator a true Smart Regulator.

Features and Benefits
  • Expected switch life up to two million operations translating to up to 20 years of maintenance free usage; key in SmartGrid applications demanding a switch intense operation
  • Continuous loading capability without undue loss of insulation life.
  • Internal Zenox Varistor provides optimum surge protection against abnormal voltage surges, leveling internal stresses in the windings during surge/fault events better than externally mounted arresters resulting in a more stable/reliable product during unplanned events.
  • Laser etched name plates
  • True 55°C rated design that provides 12% extra Adjustable height sub-base so that for flexible installation design
  • User-friendly cover suspended design allows removal of the complete interior from the top for easy maintenance if ever required.
  • A wide range of control options
