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

Example of simulation. Made with FREE microcap v12.
