Ferroresonance is usually described as
an irregular and chaotic type of resonance. This phenomenon occurs because of
the nonlinear characteristic of iron-core (saturable) inductors - ferromagnetic
material such as a transformer. Ferroresonance is often times associated with
unwanted and destructive overvoltages, but has found some helpful applications
in Constant Voltage Transformers, which can mitigate power quality problems
like voltage sags.
