These are the deadband for the tap changer, for the voltage at the monitored bus. These are usually determined through load flow studies to find good voltage regulation over the required conditions (e.g. min and max load). The default values of 0.99 and 1.01 puV give acceptable voltage regulation for many applications, but certainly not all. If the deadband is too narrow, there is a greater chance of tap changer hunting.
