Inrush currents associated with motor starting and transformer energizing can cause interaction problems with other loads in a facility or on the power system, particularly sags that trip loads.

A simple approach based on original research attacks inrush currents at the source - the power transformer. The use of special core materials and transformer design/construction techniques overcomes ...

However much care is taken, it is very difficult to keep all traces of transformer-induced hum out of the signal circuitry. It is highly irritating to find that despite the cunning use of low-noise ...

Inrush current effect is common in electric motors. Sometimes, in case of ill-designed electrical wiring systems, switching on the motor may activate the fuse. It is caused by the inrush current – ...

TDK-EPC has extended its range of EPCOS inrush current limiters (ICL). The P11 series (B57211P*) covers a resistance range from 4 to 25 ohms (R25). TDK-EPC has extended its range of EPCOS inrush ...

This article addresses a characteristic found in many battery-powered products. When power to a circuit is first applied, high peak currents are encountered during the time taken to establish stable ...

In power distribution systems, sudden load increases can cause significant voltage drops. These short-term dips should ideally have no impact on the subsequent power supply components. In power ...

Inrush currents associated with motor starting and transformer energizing can cause interaction problems with other loads in a facility or on the power system. These inrush currents can cause sags ...
