Title:
CASCADE ADAPTIVE REGULATOR TAP MANAGER METHOD AND SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/123553
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method is disclosed that continuously detects measurements of electrical power supplied to one or more electrical devices from a power source. Estimated deviant voltage levels that the supplied electricity will not drop below or exceed as a result of varying electrical consumption by the one or more electrical devices are continuously computed. The deviant voltage levels may be computed based on a predetermined confidence level and specific properties of the effects on measured voltage due to varying consumption computed from the detected measurements. A voltage level output of the electricity supplied to the electrical device may be adjusted based on the computed deviant voltage level. In an additional implementation, the deviant voltage levels may be based on measurements obtained from each of the three phases in a three-phase electric power distribution system. A voltage level supplied to the three-phase distribution system may be adjusted by a voltage regulator capable of setting three-phase voltages.
