ABSTRACT:
A control circuit for limiting the output voltage of a voltage regulator or the like to a safe level for consumers connected close to the voltage regulator. The output voltage of the regulator is measured and compared to a reference. If the voltage exceeds the preset level then the circuit is energized to prevent further tap change that would increase the voltage output. A time delay is provided to prevent immediate de-energization of the circuit when the voltage drops below the preset level. Should line fluctuations cause further voltage increase, then the circuit will cause a tap change so as to reduce the output voltage. If the output voltage drops below a preset level then the circuit will prevent further tap changing which would cause any further lowering of the output voltage.
