Hello, I am looking for help designing a inrush current limiting circuit for a 1.5MW transformer as of now the current can reach as high as 10-15kA

I would like to keep the current under 1800A per phase and each phase is 480VAC at 60Hz.

The input will be 2.5MVA,I’ve been researching various methods but have yet to come up with a solution.

I do not have knowledge on harmonics so I’m trying to keep it simple, but yet effective,I would like to build the circuit myself and will be doing the testing myself as well.

Any help or advice is appreciated. Thanks.
