Q: Can a voltage regulator help with supply voltage issues?

A: Usually, there are two situations in the voltage of the power supply grid: 1. The voltage is unstable, fluctuating, and fluctuates continuously. 2. The voltage continues to be low or high for a long time. In normal operation, it will seriously lead to the burning of electrical equipment. There are two possible reasons for the problem of the power supply voltage: there is a problem with the voltage stabilizer of the power plant generator, which causes the output voltage to be unstable. Such types are generally small hydropower stations, power transformers in substations or substations with reduced performance, generally in serious disrepair and aging. The total electricity consumption in the region greatly exceeds the power supply load, resulting in a continuous low power supply voltage. In severe cases, the power supply frequency may be low, which will paralyze the power grid and cause large-scale power outages.
