[QUOTE="6pack, post: 2443561, member: 1119"] Any voltage stabilizer will increase electricity cost. All of them have their own transformer inside according to the load they support. If a stabilizer says it supports max 2500w then it has a transformer that can take that load. A stabilizer can't produce electricity on its own, so it will put a load of 2500w on the mains. 2500w x 24/7 will naturally increase the number of units consumption per month. As an example, my 850va inverter which supports max 550watts of load, puts a load of 550w on the mains 24/7 even if everything connected to it is shut off. I get about 15 units extra per month due to this. In the end, it's depends on whether you really want to stabilize the electricity on your own or spend extra if something happens to the electronic stuff in your house. There's a third option - tell your electric company that there is very high voltage in your area and they will do some adjustments to the wire connection that comes to the main transformer every building or society has. Ofcourse tell your society secretary or the person in charge of maintenance to make the complaint officially. Installation is extremely simple. Two wires from mainline go to the stabilizer and the two wires that the entire house runs of that were connected to the MCB are connected to the output of the stabilizer. [/QUOTE]
