Large power supplies that operatefrom ac wall voltage havelarge input-filter capacitors. You mustlimit the inrush current to those capacitors.Otherwise, the supply may tripthe ac circuit breaker, or ...

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 ...

Offline power supplies that drive loads of 200W and more require inrush-current limiters. Unrestricted inrush currents can reach hundreds of amperes, which may damage the line rectifier, open the fuse ...

While consuming less electricity than their older, less efficient counterparts, high-efficiency motors are much more likely to trip their respective circuit protectors when they start. Initial ...
