Difference between Series and Shunt Voltage Regulator
S.No. | Series Voltage Regulator | Shunt Voltage Regulator |
1 | The regulator is connected in series with the load. | The regulator is connected in parallel with the load. |
2 | At high load currents, it does not give good voltage regulation. | It gives good voltage regulation at high load currents. |
3 | The output DC voltages are not constant. | The output voltage is constant. |
4 | Has good efficiency for higher load currents. | Comparatively has less efficiency. |
5 | The regulator is appropriate for heavy loads. | Appropriate for light loads. |
