ABSTRACT:
An automatic voltage regulator for an excited AC generator comprising at least one controlled rectifier for conducting the field current of the generator, a trigger signal supplying means for supplying a trigger signal to the controlled rectifier when the controlled rectifier is forward biased, a voltage detection circuit for detecting the output voltage of the generator, an inhibiting circuit for inhibiting turn-on of the controlled rectifier when the instantaneous value of the voltage detection circuit exceeds a predetermined voltage, characterized in that the voltage detection circuit comprises a phase shifting circuit receiving and shifting the phase of the output voltage of the generator. The amount of phase shift may be selected so that the inhibiting operation terminates and hence the turn-on of the controlled rectifier is effected at any angle within a wide range to adjust to the load being energized.
