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.

Rectifiers and ac-dc power supplies employ large bulk capacitors. During power-up, these capacitors require a large amount of current to charge up, resulting in a large inrush current. This inrush ...

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 – ...
