The most common types of regulating transformers are those which use the alternator-regulator system. This system is employed by almost all modern electrical power systems, and provides the most reliable and stable voltage control. In this system, a device known as an alternator, or alternator regulator, is used to regulate the voltage output of the transformer. This is done by varying the output frequency of the alternator, thus changing the number of cycles in the electrical signal, which in turn affects the voltage output. vAnother type of regulating transformer is the autotransformer-regulator system. In this system, the output voltage is controlled by the use of a tap-changing device, which is usually a rotary switch. In this system, the transformer taps are adjusted manually, to change the voltage output. This is a simpler and less expensive system than the alternator-regulator system, and is used in many smaller electric power systems.

Regulating transformers can also be classified according to their frequency. High frequency and low frequency regulating transformers are available in the market. High frequency transformers are used in high voltage systems, while low frequency transformers are used in low voltage systems. Sometimes, the choice of frequency is based on the load requirement.

Finally, regulating transformers can also be classified according to the manufacturer. Many transformer manufacturers offer various features, such as maximum allowable temperature, maximum current rating, and other specifications, to suit different applications. Thus, when selecting a regulating transformer, it is important to know the exact requirements of the system.
