HI) Howard Industries, Inc. Single-Phase Step 28-1 0 Voltage Regulators Distribution Transformer Division INTRODUCTION Howard Industries’ SVR-1 single-phase step voltage regulators are tapchanging {autotrensformers designed to automati- cally regulate distribution line voltages in 2 range of plus or minus 10% in thirty-two steps of approximately 5/8% each. The following ratings are avaliable: + Vottage: 2500 Volts (60 KY BIL) ‘through 19920 Volts (150 KV BIL) + Current: 50 through 1665 Amps ‘+ KVA: 38.1 through 1000 + Frequency: 50 or 60 Hertz Internal potential winding taps and/or fan external ratio correction transformer ‘are provided on all ratings so that each regulator may be applied within a range of system vohages, Algal contol system autoratically ‘operates the tap changer mechanism to maintain system voltage within desired limits. The control system is externally programmable to allow precise setting of ‘control limits and provides sophisticated capabilities for special control require- ments, communication, and data logging. Overhead type voltage regulators are supplied with support brackets for pole ‘mounting and have bolt-down provisions for pachmounted applications. Substation ‘ype voltage regulators are provided with rectangular substation bases. Elevating platforms are available as an option. ‘SVR- voltage regulators are designed for jable operation and ease of mainte- nance and are supplied with a ful array of standard features for routine applications. Optional accessories are available to ac- ‘commodate special applications.

This series arester also known as a bypass arrester) is provided to protect the series winding ofthe regulator trom damage due to line surges, such as can result from lightning. switching surges, and line faults. The series arrester ‘lone does not provide complete lightning protection. For more complete protection, option shunt arresters should be installe. Shunt Aresters MOV surge aresters are available as an ‘option on the SVR- regulator to provide protection for the shunt winding. Shunt arresters are mounted on the regulator tank adjacent tothe load bushing and ‘the source bushing. Each arrester 's connected between the bushing ‘terminal and ground.
