What do constant voltage transformers regulate?
  1. Power Surges
  2. Brownouts
  3. Blackouts
  4. None of the above
Explanation
Answer: B - Constant voltage transformers regulate brownouts. Brownouts are caused by a reduction in voltage. This happens when power companies are experiencing high demand and reduce the voltage in an electrical grid. Constant voltage transformers are used to regulate this fluctuation of power. They can use different ranges of voltage and only release the expected 120 volts of alternating current to devices.
