What is Voltage Regulation of Transformer?
Voltage Regulation Definition
Voltage regulation is a measure of the voltage change between no load and full load in electrical components, including transformers.
Transformer Voltage Drop
When a transformer is loaded, the secondary terminal voltage drops due to impedance, causing a difference from the no-load voltage.
Voltage Regulation Formula
The voltage regulation of a transformer is calculated as a percentage using the formula involving load and impedance.

Lagging Power Factor Impact
With a lagging power factor, the current lags behind the voltage, affecting the voltage regulation of the transformer.


Leading Power Factor Impact
With a leading power factor, the current leads the voltage, also impacting the transformer’s voltage regulation.
