RE: Inrush current and utility power line reistance

1998-09-11 Thread Campi, Mike
John - Try the test at a phase angle of 0 or 180 degrees. You should come a lot closer to your calculated inrush current of 56.6. You are making the mistake of seeing the input section of the power supply as a straight resistance circuit. It is more inductive and will behave differently when the
