[R-390] Line Voltage Survey

[Pete Lancashire]

there are also motor driven units. I have one of the little newer
Chinese ones. There are the older GR's, and the one I use to use about
20 years ago. I use to live i a rural area where at the end of the
line was a farm. I would get some pretty nasty voltage fluctuations
and the the sine wave shape was at times a memory. I had a servo motor
driven 30/30/30 AM Superior 3 ph'er ganged together plus a 100A  OneAC
filter transformer. When the farm was not doing anything voltage would
be up to
128V and the wave was pretty much a sine wave. Voltage would drop to
as low as 120V.
