OPERATION 

 

5.1.  CONTROL MODULE ASSEMBLY 

 

5.1.1. 

General 

The  control  modules  contain  the  circuitry  that  senses 
the  output  voltage  and  determine  if  correction  is 
needed. When correction is required this circuit sends a 
raise  or  lower  signal  to  the  motor  driven  variable 
transformers.  To  eliminate  unauthorized  tampering  of 
the  control  module  the  items  marked  (

)  below  are 

located behind the front panel. 
 

5.1.2. 

Power Pilot Lamps

  (A1-LP1)

 

The  POWER  lamp  on  each  control  assembly  lights 
when power is present for the motor on that phase. This 
indicates the voltage regulator is energized. 
 

5.1.3. 

Control Pilot Lamps  (

A1-LP2)

 

The  CONTROL  lamp  lights  when  the  control  assembly 
sense  voltage  for  that  phase  is  energized.  The  control 
sense  voltage  must  be  energized  for  automatic 
correction of voltage changes to occur. 
 

5.1.4. 

Analog Voltmeters

  (A1-M1)

 

These  meters  show  the  output  voltages.  There  is  one 
meter  for  each  phase.  They  sense  line-to-neutral 
voltage,  and  display  line-to-neutral  voltage  and  the 
equivalent line to line voltage. 
 

5.1.5. 

Output Voltage Range Toggle Switches

 

(A1-S1)

 

With  these  switches  in  the  OFF  position,  the  control 
sense  voltage  for  that  phase  is  disconnected  and  the 
control  pilot  lamp  is  not  illuminated.  In  this  position 
automatic correction for voltage changes on that phase 
will  not  take  place  and  any  change in input voltage  will 
be  reflected  in  output  voltage.  The  switches  (one  for 
each  phase)  should  be  placed  in  the  “208Y/120” 
position to energize the control assembly sense voltage 
and allow automatic correction of voltage changes.  
 

5.1.6. 

Output Voltage Potentiometers 

 

These  potentiometers  set  the  line  to  neutral  output 
voltages,  one for  each  phase.  The  adjustment  range is 
approximately ±10% of selected nominal output voltage. 
 

5.1.7. 

Sensitivity Potentiometers 

 

These  potentiometers  adjust  the  voltage  regulator’s 
output accuracy and therefore set how much the output 
voltage will change before the unit will correct. There is 
a SENSITIVITY potentiometer for each sensed phase. 
 

5.1.8. 

Fuses

 (A1-F1 to A1-F4) 

 

The four fuses located on the control module protect the 
motor  and  sense  power  lines.  If  the  POWER  or 
CONTROL lights are not lit, and all control settings are 
proper, check for a blown fuse. 
 

5.2.  SETTING OUTPUT VOLTAGE AND 

SENSITIVITY POTENTIOMETERS 

Normally, the WHR Series  voltage regulator should not 
be  operated  without  the front  panel(s)  of the  cabinet  in 
place.  However,  during  the  initial  operation  of  the 
regulator,  the  front  panels  can  be  removed  to  allow 
setting  the  OUTPUT  VOLTAGE  and  SENSITIVITY 
potentiometers. 
 

5.2.1. 

Energize Regulator 

On units equipped with a manual bypass switch ensure 
it  is  in  the  REGULATOR  position.  Energize  the 
regulator  power  source  and  place  the  input  circuit 
breaker,  if  so  equipped,  in  the  "ON"  position.  The  pilot 
lamps  should  light,  indicating  that the voltage  regulator 
is energized and that the control unit is on. If necessary, 
move  the  OUTPUT VOLTAGE  RANGE  switch  on  each 
phase  to  the  desired  nominal  output  voltage  position. 
The voltmeters will indicate the output voltages. 
 

5.2.2. 

Set Output 

To  adjust  the  output  voltage  on  any  phase  turn  the 
OUTPUT  VOLTAGE  potentiometer,  clockwise  to 
increase  or  counterclockwise  to  decrease,  to  the 
desired output voltage as indicated on the voltmeter for 
that phase. 
 

5.2.3. 

Set Sensitivity 

The sensitivity must be adjusted if the voltage regulator 
hunts  (any  of  the  motor  driven  variable  transformer 
sections  of  the  regulator  continually  cycles  back  and 
forth) or if the regulator allows too great a change from 
the set voltage before correction occurs. 
 
Turning  the  SENSITIVITY  control  clockwise  increases 
the  sensitivity  to  maximum  (±0.75%  to  ±1%  output 
voltage  accuracy).  For  maximum  sensitivity,  turn  the 
SENSITIVITY  control  on  one  phase  clockwise  to  the 
point  where  the POWERSTAT  on  that  phase  begins  to 
hunt. Turn the control counterclockwise (CCW) until the 
hunting  stops.  Turn  the  control  an  additional  1/4  turn 
CCW. Repeat for the other two phases. 
 

5.2.4. 

Close

 

Replace the front cover(s). 
 

5.3.  REMOTE SENSING 

Normally,  these  voltage  regulators  sense  and  regulate 
each  line  to  neutral  voltage  at  the  regulator's  output 
terminals, In some cases better control can be obtained 
by  regulating  the  voltage  at  another  point,  such  as  at 
the  end  of  long  lines  between  the  regulator  and  the 
load. This is known as remote sensing. 
 
If  remote  sensing  is  desired,  move  the  wire  connected 
to  terminal  6  to  terminal  7  and  the  wire  connected  to 
terminal 8 to terminal 9 on each control module terminal 
panel.  This  will  disconnect  the  control  module  sense 
terminals  from  the  output  terminals  of  the  regulator. 
Connect  remote  sensing  wires  for  each  corresponding
