Abstract: A power system can include a first tap changer for a first regulated transformer, where the first tap changer has a plurality of first positions. The power system can also include a second tap changer for a second regulated transformer, where the second tap changer has a plurality of second positions. The power system can further include at least one first instrument transformer coupled to the first regulated transformer. The power system can also include at least one second instrument transformer coupled to the second regulated transformer. The power system can further include a controller coupled to the at least one first instrument transformer and the at least one second instrument transformer, where the controller adjusts the first tap changer to a first adjusted position among the first positions based on the first measurements of the first regulated transformer and the second measurements of the second regulated transformer.

Abstract: A method of controlling a voltage regulator having a nominal input and a nominal output structured to operate in a forward power mode wherein power flows from the input to the output and a reverse power mode wherein power flows from the output to the input. The method includes sensing current flowing through the voltage regulator, determining a direction of power flow through the voltage regulator based on the sensed current, determining a verified direction of power flow through the voltage regulator by altering a voltage between the input and the output and analyzing an effect caused thereby on at least one of a voltage at the input and a voltage at the output, and selecting a voltage regulating scheme for controlling the voltage regulator based on the verified direction of power flow.
