Voltage Management

Control mechanisms that maintain Voltages at different points in the Power System within acceptable ranges during normal operation and enable recovery to acceptable levels following a disturbance.

Voltage is managed through a variety of means, including Transformer ‘tap changers’, Voltage regulators and the control of Reactive Power flow.

Given the fast-evolving nature of power system transformation, the Future Grid Accelerator (FGA) has the status of a perpetual BETA version. Your suggestions for how each concept and definition may be enhanced are very welcome.

All feedback will be reviewed and considered for inclusion in subsequent updates.
