Single-phase substation voltage regulator

Voltage regulators

Eaton leads the industry in the application of single-phase voltage regulators into substations regulating loads up to 60 MVA. With features such as fan cooling and insulating fluid filtration, substation voltage regulators provide a viable option superior to the use of On-Load Tap-Changers (OLTC) with the added flexibility of regulation separate from the power transformer.

Integrated volt-var compensation benefits

In this video, experts from Eaton's Power Systems Experience Center (PSEC) explain the methods and benefits of integrated volt-var compensation using voltage regulators and power factor correction to optimize voltage quality on utility power systems.

Eaton's EVER-Tap vacuum interrupting voltage regulator is the result of a significant collaboration between two industry leaders: Eaton and Reinhausen Manufacturing. Eaton’s long-standing experience with step-voltage regulators and controls combined with Reinhausen’s industry-proven VACUTAP RMV-SVR tap changer resulted in a reliable, efficient and flexible voltage regulating solution for your substation.

EVER-Tap vacuum interrupting voltage regulator

Advanced step voltage regulation to meet power quality requirements

Voltage regulators provide regulation in 32 steps (approximately 5/8% per steps) for a maximum of ± 10% in wye-connected banks. Proven reliability is backed up by rugged, service-proven tap-changers, superior core-and-coil assemblies and a control designed for the apparatus.

Industry-leading technology

The CL-7 voltage regulator control and Quik-drive tap changer are a package that is unmatched in the industry. The speed of the industry's only Quik-Drive tap-changer along with the unique Voltage Limiter capabilities of the control enable the fastest response available for extreme voltage swings.

Advanced CL-7 voltage regulator control

The CL-7 voltage regulator meets the needs of system planners today and in the future with integrated SCADA componentry and continuously evolving features such as radio-ready control box, DC power supply, I/O module and AC cabinet power. An analog input card is available for monitoring apparatus data such as insulating fluid temperatures, pressure/vacuum and regulator health.
