Abstract:I . INTRODUCTIONInrush currents are high magnitude currents generated typically during energization of a transformer, being a large transient caused by saturation of the magnetic core of the transformer . The magnitudes of the inrush currents can be initially several times the rated load current which will cause error actions of the relay protection equipment [1] . When a transformer is put into operation at the optimal angle, the residual flux becomes the main factor leading to inrush currents . Measuring me… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
