I read in !emc-pstc that [email protected] wrote (in <[email protected]>) about 'Measuring Current Inrush and Startup Current' on Tue, 30 Mar 2004: >1. Is there a standard that shows how to properly measure Inrush Current? How >about Startup Currents from large motor devices?
IEC/EN 61000-3-3 and IEC/EN 61000-3-11. You can't understand -11 by itself, you need -3 as well. Also see IEC/EN 61000-4-15. You don't necessarily measure inrush current directly, but deduce it >from the voltage drop caused by your product and the internal impedance of your power supply. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only.
