This circuit has much better regulation than the simple shunt regulator, since the base current of the transistor forms a very light load on the Zener, thereby minimising variation in Zener voltage due to variation in the load.

Ce type de montage offre de meilleures performances qu'un régulateur à diode Zener simple car le courant de base du transistor ne charge presque pas la diode Zener, limitant ainsi les variations de la tension Zener dues aux variations de charge.
