Is the output voltage in direct proportion to the supply voltage?
The output voltage level is directly proportional to the supply voltage. From the results of our power quality analysis we are able to determine the appropriate voltage optimisation for a site – either 6,8,or 10%. The graph below illustrates a voltage profile in the typical range for Australian premises. At this voltage level, The Ark is set to an 8% tapping, bringing the output voltage into the optimum range for the efficient operation of equipment and machinery. The green line at 220V represents a safety zone that we use when determining the appropriate optimisation level for a site, ensuring the voltage clearly exceeds the minimum statutory level (represented by the bottom of the chart) after it has been optimised.
