Selection of inrush current limiters :
There are three major criteria for selecting the best inrush current limiter for an application:
- Rated resistance (R25)
- Maximum permissible continuous current under rated operating conditions
(Imax, DC or RMS values for AC) - Maximum capacitance CT to be switched
