Hi George: Could someone give me an explanation of what makes a power source Inherently Limited.. Others have provided excellent responses to your question. Perhaps I can embellish their answers. A doorbell transformer is the prime example of an inherently limited power source. The

A good example would be a transformer. The current output can be limited by the resistance of the winding as well as the mutual inductance between the windings. Of course, increasing the resistance of the windings to limit the output may cause temperature problems. But any competent transformer

Hello George, An Inherently Limited power source is one in which the impedance of the source, typically a transformers' primary or secondary, is such that the available output is limited within the constraints of low energy as defined by a standard. UL 1585, for example, describes the
