Hi all. This time I decided to move away from the usual theme of machine tools into electrical engineering, since due to bitter events I received significant expertise in voltage stabilizers. To be more specific, I previously didn’t see any use in them until, due to a single power surge, my godfather lost all his household appliances at his dacha. The damage was estimated at 40 thousand rubles. It could have been avoided by having a reliable stabilizer. Therefore, I decided to adopt this miracle of engineering. I immersed myself in the topic, made conclusions for myself about how and what to choose, and I want to pass on the knowledge to the people. This article will be useful:
- Owners of private houses and summer cottages located in villages with an old electrical network;
- For those who choose a stabilizer for a gas boiler.
Why is it needed?
Primarily to protect delicate office and household appliances. The worse the quality of electricity, the shorter the lifespan of your reliable refrigerator and trusty TV.
In Russia, GOST 32144-2013 dated 07/01/14 is in force for the quality of electricity, according to which:
- the voltage should not go beyond 220V (380V) +/- 10%;
- frequency 50 +/- 0.4 Hz;
- flicker dose does not exceed 1.0;
- there should be no odd harmonics, negative and zero sequence components and other high matters
