Abstract
A stabilization circuit is provided for use with a ferroresonant power supply to maintain a steady output voltage during power line transients, rapid load changes, or no load condition. The stabilization circuit is responsive to the voltage output of the power supply and selectively connects a load across voltage output terminals. Stabilization circuit includes a voltage sensing circuit that enables a timing circuit that activates a switch to place the load across terminals. This stabilizes the power supply, without requiring a continuously dissipative minimum load.
