Like erratic rainfall erratic flow of current is too a big problem to deal with, however, with new Automatic Voltage Regulators the various problems related with it have become things of past. Every one of us at some point in time may have faced predicaments of high and low flow of electric current. The catch-22 situation attached with it not only prevalent in residential areas but also pains industries across sectors. On one hand, where residents’ peace of mind gets disturbed and on the other industrialists get worried over lesser output. Fluctuation of electricity may seem tiny, but it has its hazardous effect on any electric and electronic apparatuses. For example, Televisions, Washing Machines, Refrigerators, Fans, Air Conditioners, Coolers, DVD/ CD Players, Oven, Microwave, Mixer, Grinder, Juicer, Induction Heater, Computer System, Vacuum Cleaner, water pumps,  and so on and so forth.

The irregular flow of current directly damages the main part of particular equipment. Take the example Washing Machine, the part that first gets affected is the rotating motor. This rotating motor revolves the container inside the washing machine clockwise and anti-clockwise. This motor part has copper wire binding and when it receives high voltage it cannot control that intensity of power and stops working. Similarly, other electric items also have this copper binding in them which stop working when they come in contact with high-voltage of electricity flow.   

Why does fluctuation of electric current affect an electric and electronic machine?

When you enter a plug of a gadget in a socket, the gadget starts functioning and in the meanwhile, the flow of electricity gets down and your gadget stops functioning in a proper way and suddenly it receive high voltage. Now, your gadget doesn’t have power bear the load of that intensity, so what happens is that the copper wire starts getting hot and sometime when electricity voltage is unbearable the wires even get melt away and your gadget gets dead.

What is the best solution for the problem of erratic flow of electricity?

It is indeed very important to save your electric and electronic equipment from the sever affects of fluctuation of the electricity flow. To save your equipment from the menace of voltage fluctuation, you have to take assistance of Automatic Voltage Regulator. This voltage regulator helps supply the flow of electricity in even manner that is the supply will be constant at same pace.

What is the difference between Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) and Voltage Regulator?

If you take a broader look on these regulators, it is hard to find out any difference in them. But if you take a narrow look at them like about their specifics, you will find the former voltage regulators are quite dissimilar in their approach of operating. The older versions had control panel along with the voltage meter, so whenever the voltage would go higher or vice-versa you had to adjust the voltage from the control panel to make a balance on which particular equipment ran. But with the development in science and technology, the manual adjust of voltage fluctuation has become a thing of past. Now, once you have fixed an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) you need not to worry about the constant ups and downs of electricity flow, as the new regulators have in them inbuilt mechanism that takes care of fluctuation predicaments and balances the electric supply.

Advantages of deploying Automatic Voltage Stabilizer or Regulator:

·         Eliminates any uncertainty of your electric and electronic items going astray.

·         Aids your various devices work efficiently without the quandaries of irregular flow of electricity.

·         Delivers your apparatuses strength to bear the load of high and low voltage issues.

·         Enhances the life of your equipment.
