| As can be seen from the graph (Fig. 4) there is a substantial difference between the saving using the fixed ratio step-down transformer and the voltage regulator. Therefore a balance is drawn between the costs of the former against the control of the latter. However, that is not all that should be taken into consideration. |

The network infrastructure is close to full capacity and with no new Power Stations on the horizon, against the ever increasing
demand, it is possible that in the near future we can no longer rely on the stable supply we have enjoyed in the past. |
