Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) and Power Conditioners

A Power Conditioner stabilises mains power and so has AVR capabilities plus one or more of surge supression/absorbtion, short circuit protection, line noise absorbtion, phase voltage balancing and harmonic filitering. An AVR normalises mains voltage and removes changes in voltage such as those caused by Variation in Mains Voltage Levels, Voltage Drop from meter box to equipment and Voltage Fluctuations over time. The function of an AVR is to absorb the range of mains voltage, that could vary by + 10 to - 25% and reduce that variation (e.g. to + or - 3%). Most AVRs can absorb input surges in voltage.

The automatic voltage regulator (AVR) is a device designed to regulate voltage automatically – that is, to take a fluctuating voltage level and turn it into a constant voltage level. There are three types of AVRs which are Electrical, Mechanical and Ferroresonant Transformer. The Electrical type is used in most applications due to it's efficency, switching speed and low maintenance.

An AVR or Power Conditioner is required when specialist equipment requires stable mains voltage to operate or when the location is in a postion that attracts power fluctuations e.g at the end of a power transmission line or surges such as lightning strikes.
