I am bit confused on the following choices, which one statement about series regulators is correct ?
1) Series regulators are inherently less efficient than shunt regulators because the current through the shunt regulator flows through the load.
2) Series regulators are inherently more efficient than shunt regulators because the current through the shunt regulator flows through the load.
3) Series regulators are inherently less efficient than shunt regulators because the current through the shunt regulator does not flow through the load.
4) Series regulators are inherently more efficient than shunt regulators because the current through the shunt regulator does not flow through the load.
I am inclined to choose no. 2, I don't know I am confused between no. 2 and no. 4 , do you have any idea or comments about series regulators vs shunt regulator ? Am I getting it right ? Please help .![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
