  • Page 17: Normset

    4 Functions and settings NORMset Instead of parameterizing the voltage regulator manually, NORMset mode enables easy and user-friendly commissioning of the voltage regulator with a limited set of parameters. When this mode is selected, the factory settings re- quired for voltage regulation are adopted. If NORMset is activated, the bandwidth and delay time settings will be un- dertaken automatically by the voltage regulator.

  • Page 24: Bandwidth

    4 Functions and settings 4.5.2 Bandwidth The bandwidth is the permitted deviation of the measured voltage from the se- lected desired value. If the measured voltage is inside the bandwidth, then no control commands are issued to the on-load tap-changer. If the measured voltage deviates from the specified bandwidth, a tap-change command occurs after the set delay time T1.
