LVRSys® - Low-Voltage Regulation
Solve Voltage Stability Problems in the LV-Grid Due to PV, E-Mobility & Heatpumps
Low voltage regulation helps keep voltage stable in low-voltage grids with rising PV feed-in, EV charging and heat pump loads. LVRSys® is installed where voltage deviations actually occur and can regulate locally instead of requiring immediate grid expansion. This makes it a practical solution for utilities, industrial sites and weak feeders that need fast, scalable voltage stabilisation.

Low Voltage Regulation
A Building Block of the Future
The »LVRSys® – Low-Voltage Regulation System« was developed to solve voltage stability problems in the low-voltage grid due to the integration of photovoltaics, electromobility and heat pumps. It represents an economical and flexible alternative to costly and time-consuming line extensions.
The voltage stability problems could be local (individual lines) or affect the entire low-voltage grid. LVRSys® can be used flexibly as a line regulator or regulate directly at the local transformer station (or secondary substation).

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
What is low voltage regulation?
Low voltage regulation is the controlled stabilisation of voltage in low-voltage networks. It helps keep customer voltage within the permissible range even when feed-in and load conditions change.
When is a low voltage regulator needed?
A low voltage regulator is useful when PV systems, EV charging, heat pumps or long feeders cause recurring overvoltage or undervoltage in specific sections of the low-voltage grid.
How does LVRSys® work?
LVRSys® regulates voltage locally in the affected feeder section. Instead of acting only centrally, it is installed where the voltage problem actually occurs and compensates deviations directly in the grid.
Where can LVRSys® be installed?
LVRSys® can be installed in low-voltage feeders, near critical line sections or at the local transformer station / secondary substation, depending on the grid situation and regulation objective.
What problems can low voltage regulation solve?
Low voltage regulation helps solve local overvoltage, undervoltage, voltage drops in long feeders and voltage deviations caused by decentralised generation or new electrical loads.
Is LVRSys® an alternative to grid expansion?
Yes. In many cases, LVRSys® is a practical and economical alternative when operators need to stabilise voltage quickly without immediately expanding cables or reinforcing the grid.
Which applications are typical for LVRSys®?
Typical applications include residential areas with high PV penetration, feeder sections with EV charging and heat pumps, industrial facilities and rural networks with weak voltage conditions.
What is the benefit for utilities and network operators?
Utilities and network operators gain a flexible way to improve voltage quality, reduce complaint risks, support additional electrification and postpone or minimise expensive grid reinforcement.
